[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Making sure it's a place they can afford, long term, matters the very most - even more than proximity.[/quote] And I would assume, a place that makes them happy. Even if inconvenient for me.[/quote] I’d disagree. At some point proximity to you trumps their happiness, unless they truly don’t need you to help with a lot of things. If I hadn’t moved my mom 10 minutes up the road I wouldn’t be able to see her as much. Even 30 minutes away isn’t really doable after work in the evening so the visits would be limited to the weekend. I’ve done a bunch of reading on this topic, mostly due to guilt, and at some stage of the game their safety comes before their happiness. If it’s safer for them to be close to you that’s most important. Others may disagree.[/quote]
