[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My mom has been amazing. My dad died 5 years ago. My mom completely cleared out the house of 50 years, asked us what we wanted. They had renovated over the years and kept up maintenance of everything so house looks great- not old or musty. And she has all paperwork, will etc. She also (at 79) went and bought a condo in a retirement community that also has assisted living for when the need comes she will move to that building. She sold the house herself—did so much work leading up to it and a neighbor was helping her sell things on Craigslist. My mom always said it’s a gift to your kids not to burden them with all of that. She saw far too many bad experiences and worked at an assisted living facility herself before she retired. I plan to do the same for kids.[/quote] Your mom is an inspiration. I hope I can be like her.[/quote] +1,000,000 I truly want to do everything I can to make things easy for my own kids. [/quote]
