[quote=Anonymous]Yes, I had a very nice childhood, upper middle class I'd say, but I always thought we were poor because my parents didn't spend a lot. Four kids. My parents are in their mid 80s now. My siblings and I all get along and support each other tremendously, and two siblings live in town near my parents. My mom and dad moved to an independent living place and made plans for their money to be held in a trust about 6 years ago. They are not in great health, and there's a lot of worry from me and my siblings about next steps. The two siblings who live further away try to visit and take care of the heavy duty, unpleasant stuff when we do visit, knowing that our in town siblings really bear the brunt of the daily helping (however, they also had a LOT of grandparent help when their kids were younger.) I love my family. Sure, sometimes mom gets on my nerves esp as she ages and is losing her filter a little bit... [/quote]
