[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yay, "boots on the ground" decides [/quote] This, whoever is most impacted is the one who should make the decision. That said, if mom wants AL and can afford it and it's LESS work for sibling nearby that should be honored. They have to understand there is often an adjustment period where the elderly parent is a unhappy and also sometimes just aging makes them unhappy wherever they are. I would be much more willing to move a parent who WANTS more care and wants AL to AL and then you know even if she is unhappy you honored her wishes. The big issue is when mom insists on say aging at home which is a ton of unappreciated work for an adult child coordinating care and other siblings who can't do much to help want to honor her wishes.[/quote]
