[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If your sister is living with your aging parents she’s doing more than you realize to make sure they are taken care of. Either way, I would just make sure she knows you are not supporting her after they pass so she can plan. But I would do it as nicely as possible and maybe direct her to info on how to get food stamps and help herself. And hopefully that will be motivation for her to at least start thinking about independence. [/quote] This. Address your sibling in these talks, not your dad/mom. Let her know how things will be when they are gone. You are not moving her into your home. Have a frank conversation with EVERYONE. Seems like dad is trying play provider from the grave, & making deals with you to pass on responsibility for sibling to you. Don’t let him have these conversations without your sister there - insist on all meeting together to talk about what happens when dad passes. [/quote]
