It Seems that Everyone is Becoming a Caregiver for Aging Parents
They want to age at home. The fiasco at the care homes during covid didn’t create their desire. They’ve always wanted to stay home. They downsized into ranchers so they could stay home.
So, what frustrates them most as they age at home?
This CareWise Solutions article1, previously published on the Age Brilliantly website, explains the problem – which is probably not what most people think.
Society says that this is a private problem. A combination of health and money issues are nobody’s business. So, each family must find unique solutions.
Children and grandchildren are ruining their physical and mental health, families, and careers because of their responsibilities to the Boomers they love. They’re taking too much time off work and getting training in stress and anger management. They’re not nurses, yet they perform medical tasks, so Boomers rely on love instead of medical expertise to stay alive.
They’re aging at home but undermining their children’s and grandchildren’s lives.
