[quote=Anonymous]I remember having a stern talk with my Mother. She was early 80's at the time. I was exasperated. I basically said ... how dare she and Dad not have a plan! As parents raising us, they always expected us to have a plan for our lives, to reach whatever milestone was coming next in our lives. At the time I was motivated by, what seemed like chaos, with my ILs. But I learned something from the experience with my ILs. They could not have anticipated what would happen. The much younger parent who was doing perfectly well, died first very unexpectedly. After that, I showed my own parents more grace re: plans. At 90+ they went into a retirement facility.[/quote]
