[quote=Anonymous]1. Do they babysit at all for your kids? How many times a year?  
    yes, and they are eager to. My mom usually once a month or so for a couple hours.  My in-laws usually take them for long enough for us to go out to lunch or dinner once or twice every time we see them (they live out of town)

2. How many times do you visit them a year? 
  My family is in town, we go over roughly every other week.  ILs are in Florida, we visit them there once a year. 
3. How many times do they visit you a year? 
   ILs fly up several times a year
4. If you fly.. Who pays for their plane tickets if they visit you? 
Them
5. If you fly.. Who pays for your plane ticket if you visit them? 
Us
6. Who general pays if you eat out or do an outing? 
We basically never do outings with my parents as my dad doesn’t like to leave his recliner. If with ILs, we typically each pay our own way. Sometimes if other sibs are there, ILs will pay for the group. 
7. Do you borrow money from your parents? 
No
8. Do they borrow money from you or do you assist in any of their month to month expenses? 
No
9. Do you have savings benchmarked to care for your parents as they age?
No
10. Do you plan to take your parents or in laws in as they are aging if they are in a position they can no longer live alone and have your discussed with spouse?

We have discussed.  Assumption is that my mom may end up living with us at some point, just based on our guesses of how things will go with everyone’s health and whatnot.
