[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Your wife most certainly should help. If she won’t DO NOT SHARE your inheritance check with her. It’s only fair. Parents should NOT leave money to those that won’t help them. Period. [/quote] Op's dad is only 63 years old. I doubt that the adult children are going to be getting an inheritance any time soon. This is more about doing the right thing. My dad got very sick when he was in his 60's. My mom was still working full time, I was working full time, my siblings had work/families, too, and it was just a really difficult time. You can see when a situation has become overwhelming to the point where someone is drowning. That was the situation for my mom. I stepped up and did what I could - just keeping an eye on dad for an afternoon was such a help, it wasn't much by comparison to what my mom was doing but I think it meant the world to her that I did step up.
