Super unfair. Good luck though. [/quote]

My neighbor is a 84 yo widower whose 50+ adult child moved in with him because it was unsafe for him to live alone. No short term memory. If his AC didn’t move in with him, he would end up in memory care. Other neighbors judge the situation from a distance because he looks healthy. [/quote]

NP-Some people are vocal about saying this is not the case and their perfectly able child lives with them and they'd like them to move out. I have neighbors that way: their ds is 40yo, has a good job, still home. They're thinking of moving to a retirement community hours away and then he can't go with them.[/quote]

well yeah, that's true but I can tell you that both of my parents have different forms of dementia and when we were trying to figure out how to deal with it, I lived with them for weeks at a time (I can work remotely). My mom complained about it to the neighbors but my dad was with it enough to understand. I can tell you, I did NOT want to be there. I drew the short straw among the siblings since I dont have kids and can work remotely.[/quote]

My widowed mother had dementia and would complain about my unmarried sister and threaten to throw her out. Meanwhile, my sister was shopping for the household cooking, cleaning, bathing and administering her medication without any pay, just room and board. Imagine the sleep deprivation and stress. My mother fell several times, had UTIs and cellulitis, necessitating ER and doctor visits. All the while, she would complain endlessly to anyone nearby. [/quote]
