[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DO NOT GIVE HER YOUR MONEY. DO NOT LET HER MOVE IN WITH YOU AT ANY POINT IN THE FUTURE. The help you can give will be in the form of research and paperwork to access senior services, Meal on Wheels, Medicaid nursing homes, etc, in her area, when the time comes. [/quote] This this this. I am on the thread (not the OP of it) about getting a low-effort sibling to be of some use, and I am evidently a controlling and unreasonable person, which is not how I would like to be thought of but in this case I think it cements my authority when I say: Keep your distance. You don't have to ice your mom out completely, and you don't have to scorekeep, but you can do what the PP recommends and it will be all the kindness and generosity a reasonable person (IOW, not your mother) could expect of you.[/quote]
