[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My husband had a difficult childhood. He has has a strained relationship with his mom. We ended up caring for her in our home for a year and moved her to a nursing home. I manage everything and we do buy her what she needs as she has no money. She has always been nice to me. [b]I do it as that is the example I want my child to have and do the same for me.[/b] [/quote] There is so much wrong with this statement. You are raising your children to feel obligated to take care of you when they should be focused on their families when they are grown. This is a selfish, not selfless, reason. [/quote] Wow. A healthy child-parent relationship is centered around co-dependency. This is called family. You parents don't stop being family after you grow up/marry. If you are solely focused on yourself, you are selfish, not the PP you responded to.[/quote]
