[quote=Anonymous]PLease, please PLEASE, no one, have more than one kid solely because you are worried about the future and having them take care of you/that they'll be best friends. The best thing you can do if your future is the concern, is to have advance directives in place. I work as an ICU nurse, and from most cases I've seen, it's one sibling that picks up the majority of the slack for the parent's care. Very rarely do all siblings share the load equally. It was the same for my sister and I when our father passed when we were in our early 20s, and we had a lot of resentment for each other for many years bc of it. [/quote]
