Simple Mind: Dealing w/Older Parents

Nope, this isn't a post about food ... this is about you and I. And everyone else who has ever had a single elder parent and children that rely on you. Even if they don't think they do. Seems like the time your parents need you, is about the time you have high school or college children. And you thought your freedom was close at hand, and you would be traveling. Best laid plans
of mice and men. ... Remember how you treat your parents, is how your children will treat you/Cis, From A Simple Mind. More here.

Question: Would you want your children to treat you in your golden years the way that you treat your elderly parent(s) now?
