[QUOTE="KTMom91, post: 175712, member: 4040"] Many years ago, when my great-grandfather died, the "girls" (my grandmother and her three sisters), decided that their mother should sell the farm and take turns living with each daughter in turn. She would spend three months in each home before moving on to the next. While my grandmother didn't regret the time she was able to spend with her mother, she did come to regret that her mother had no place she could call her own, and she felt guilty for not letting her settle anywhere. This has stayed with me, and I would not have my mother or mother in law living with me because of it. I believe everyone needs a place of their own, even if it's an apartment in an assisted living complex. [/QUOTE]
