[quote=Anonymous]I actually don’t see the need to downsize. Both of my sets of grandparents lived in 4+ bedroom homes. It was nice that my parents had a room and I had a room when we visited. Grandparents massively simplified though. Every closet and every drawer was empty. The attic empty. There was room for a live in helper to live with them at the end. When they passed it wasn’t too much work to clear it out. My in-laws moved to a 3 bedroom and it’s hard to visit. It’s not near hotels so we stay there. But there’s not room for us. We have 3 and dhs siblings have kids too. We’re all slammed into rooms and they expect the kids to sleep on the floor (spoiler: they don’t sleep). I think if you downsize you need to stop hosting holidays and let your kids who live in large homes host. [/quote]
