[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why is it so hard for adult children to take care of a parent's personal grooming at the end of life- especially when we have done similar things for our children at the beginning of their lives? [/quote] I have this thought a lot, because I come from a culture where inter-generational bonds are bit more stressed than in general now. BUT I also haven;t been there yet, and you know what they say about walking a mile in another's shoes. I can't fault anyone when I have no idea what it is like. I have to say though, I kind of hope it becomes a real conversation to have. We really got sort of convinced in the last couple generations that having kids anything before mid to late 30s is for those who don't have anything better left to do, it just isn't always the best thing if your parents did the same thing. Not necessarily bad but something worth talking about. I was 33 and 35. I would love it if my kids had kids closer to 30.[/quote]
