[quote=Anonymous]I also have a difficult mom, so can sympathize. One thing to consider is that you are setting an example for your children as to how one cares for aging parents and for difficult people in general who are in our circle. One thing we do is trade off visiting - we try to go see her 3 times a year, but we don't all go at once. My husband took DC in August and I am going by myself in October. We only stay a few days each time, so the pile up of hurt feelings, etc. is less than if we go for one long visit. Also since we don't go all at once, we don't have to pay for a pet sitter! Good luck - it can be difficult.[/quote]
