[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] You only face the decline of old age, and death once. It is frightening and depressing. If the children you raised for decades , invested in and set up for life can’t care for you then, it would be the ultimate disappointment. Expecting your parent to rally from that and write you a check is just beyond entitlement. [/quote] Nobody is expecting a parent to rally. It's the parent who is expecting all the care in the world when they didn't give much when it was time. If you helped your children in the way you say, they'd be by your side. The bond is formed when the kids are little. It they're not, you know why. Instead of rewriting history, self-reflect. The bond cannot be forced upon or formed with adults who resent you for all you've done, this ship has sailed. There's a reason why you're frightened and depressed. Trying to buy relationships with money never works out in the long term. [/quote]
