[quote=Anonymous]Even if it is mostly driven by love and concern, of course it may feel like obligation at times. It's not any different with caring for your own kids -- I love my kids, but I don't feel enthusiastic about changing poopy diapers several times a day and driving them around. I cherish our time together and love being with them, but I'm also frustrated and irritated with them, and I feel like I have to drag myself to do some of these things at times. That's normal! I don't see it as being that different with my parents -- but they also live far away, so I'm not going to be driving them to appointments every week no matter what. In that case, it's more about visiting frequently (which is sometimes more of a chore than a joy, but we also have fun when there).[/quote]
