[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sibling E pays for his/her share of the work and then can use his/her time with parent as a social call.

All should think about a night time caregiver now and have it in place.  Find a local senior day out place that is cheaper to help pay for the night time caregiver.  [/quote]

Wait - you think a child should pay for his mother's cleaning and yardwork when the mother has [b]$5 million in assets[/b]?

OK.  [/quote]

If the rest of the siblings are dividing up he work and E doesn5 want to do the work, yes- he should pay for the work that is his share if he wants only social visits.  The OP said that money wa not an issue for anyone.  I would do it [i]for[/i] my parent.  Don’t be a bean counter. [/quote]
The bean counter is A, who controls the checkbook. Plus, A-D are okay with the elderly refusing the paid help, which is not a sane decision. At the same time A-D look at what they do as a burden, otherwise they would not fight E. [/quote]
