[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Your children will learn how to help you, a non- perfect person, when you are elderly, by how you treat your own non-perfect parents. If you make excuses about not helping an elderly parent, because the steps were treated better, then they will learn how to come up with some excuse, not to help you, when you are older. [/quote] Ugh. Not this crap again. You have to accept crappy behavior from your parents or your own kids will not love and help you. Cue the inter generational dysfunction...[/quote] The problem is defining what is crappy behavior from your parents and whether or not helping those parents sets a good or poor example for your kids. If you received help, from a parent, but use the excuse, that this parent did more for their stepchildren, then is that a valid excuse not to help? Generational dysfunction usually involves more serious issues than debating who received the most help from a parent.[/quote]
