[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You save and make a plan to hire help and a skilled facility if/when needed. EVERYONE should do this. It is your own responsibility even if you have children. Your children may want to care for you and move you in with them, but they aren’t obligated. [/quote] I guess it just seems like there’s so many other issues that older people need help with even before they are at the point where they need long term care. It’s not like you go from being healthy and having your full mental facilities to not being able to live independently. I’ve seen my parents provide help with their own parent for quite a few years when technically speaking they could make decisions for themselves, but in reality they just weren’t that sharp anymore.
