[quote=Anonymous]DH and I have supported his mother and my mother until they died and continue to aid his step-mother. We have helped out other family members when they fell on hard times. It is our responsibility as family members and as human beings. Perhaps those of you criticizing parents who face retirement with little or nothing grew up with wealth and therefore, cannot understand the plight of those who spent a lifetime scraping to make ends meet. Not everyone has the privilege of wealth. My husband and I worked our butts of to get an education and change our life circumstances and feel blessed to have been able to help out our mothers. I don't understand those who are resentful of helping those who raised you--and before you jump all over me, neither my mother or mil would win an parent of the year awards. It doesn't change anything.[/quote]
