H-m-m-m... Odd you should say that since following your pretentious
Christian values it should be her son that is burned at the stake.

So when my dad screws up and does odd things like leaving the fridge open,
the phone off the hook and leaving the garden hose running it's a sign I
should have him removed from his family and placed with strangers to dose
him with narcotics and possibly abuse him while we contently go on with our
lives like he never existed... only to murmur some kind words at his
funeral? What a shallow and superficial position.... no doubt based on your
profession.

I hope this is exactly what you face in your future Katy..... because I've
visited my friend's parents in those "homes"... and it seems they get more
visits from me, than their own children. I have several friends who work at
such institutions...... and collectively to a woman.... none would send
their parents there.That to me speaks volumes since 3 of the places are
supposedly quite posh..... the clients are miserable and lonely.

My parents won't be sent to a home.... they'll end their days with family...
we'll see to that. I'll rise to my responsibilities with honour. I'm certain
looking after your MIL would have gotten in the way of your gardening and
sailing wouldn't it? What a pathetic and easy method to slough off your
responsibilities. It's not for their best interest... not in a long shot.

I'm disappointed with you Katy... I imagined you capable of more depth and
less self interest.

Nursing Homes... pah! Another method for the rich and shallow to buy their
way out of their responsibilities. Cha-Ching...
