[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 710404, member: 1550"] Thats why I made sure my kids could all stand alone. Ive seen elderly adults supporting adult children way beyond the norm. I didnt want that for me or my adult kids. What life is that for either of us if that happens? I am 63 now and free to enjoy my husband, travel, and not worry that I have to stay around for my grown children. I love my time with them, but in the end they are self supporting and live elsewhere...even one high functioning autistic son. And his caring sister will be close by if he needs somebody, but he got his apartment at 20 and three years later has never had an emergency. I feel strongly it is necessary for them to be independent, even if they have some disabilites. We cant live forever and we deserve fabulous golden years. in my opinion its our turn now. [/QUOTE]
