[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's kind of sad to read that parents don't expect anything from their kids in old age.[/quote] I sort of see your point. Italian here - We're raised to care for our own. So when my mom begins having issues, I'll take her in. She's an only; I'm an only. And that makes it more important to me to care for her. However, as an older mother of two, I don't want to burden my kids. So we invested in long-term healthcare. We're looking into life insurance, too. I know my kids will not abandon me. We're a close family, but it's important for me to not burden them. And sometimes caring for a sick parent is indeed a burden. been there, done that - It's very stressful. [/quote]
