[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]People are crazy. There will always be people that assume she's a gold digger and want to use this as evidence of that. I agree with everyone else. This is the compassionate solution for the family. He's probably very scary to the kids and not safe when not in a controlled environment. [/quote]

Absolutely. Those kids are VERY young to be dealing with a parent with dementia. It would be very traumatizing. As a parent, I would never want my kids to be in that situation at my expense and have to constantly be around me in that condition. Those kids need the structure of daily life and shouldn’t have it disrupted constantly by a stream of caregivers, daily incidents and constant reminders of their dad’s condition. They’re lucky to have tons of money to create an ideal and comfortable situation where the kids can access the father but still retreat to their safe space. And, Bruce has constant care, peaceful surroundings and lots of visits.

It is heartbreaking that someone as young as Bruce has this advanced dementia. Sounds like they are making it work the best they can.[/quote]
