[quote=Anonymous]I will say elder care will happen whether or not your parents divorce. But all else being equal it is likely that elder care of divorced parents will be harder just b/c they are in two different places and can't pool their limited abilities together (e.g. maybe Dad's unable to get around without a walker but he's still pretty sharp and can help make sure Mom doesn't get bowled over by the Medical-Industrial Complex because Mom never wanted to cause problems.) With that said, it all depends on the anger they have and the quality of the remarriage/LTR should one emerge. You don't know what it's like being married to your mom/your dad. Sure maybe Dad cheated, but did Mom yell at him non-stop for 30 years? Sure maybe Mom ran off, but did Dad drink too much (and just do a good job hiding it)? Also, if one of my/my DW's parents just decides to abandon the other, you can damn well bet we will take sides (at least until we get more information). [/quote]
