[quote:Anonymous Coward 79256365:MV81MjAwNjY0Xzk1NjU3MjUzXzRGMDc4RTBC] [quote:Anonymous Coward 83937132:MV81MjAwNjY0Xzk1NjU2NjM5XzQ2M0QwRjJB] [quote:Anonymous Coward 79256365:MV81MjAwNjY0Xzk1NjU2MzA2X0ZCNjQ4Mzkz] That's what family is for. We take care of each other. My mom lived with us for seven years until she passed away. She took care of me and it was my turn to take care of her. My husband gets upset with his 90 year old father all the time because he will have someone come and do whatever work he needs done. He won't ask my husband to do it for him because my husband won't take any money for it. He came right out and said he won't ask my husband for help because my husband won't let him pay him for it. It makes my husband feel bad because he wants to help him. [/quote] Take his money then use it for his provisions, repairs etc. without him knowing. [/quote] Oh, he'll know. He may be 90 years old, but you can't get anything past him. He still drives, does his shopping, pays his bills, etc. He would make sure he bought any parts before my husband fixed anything. And since he knows my husband won't take any money, he doesn't tell him he needed something done until he's already paid someone to do it. This frustrates my husband to no end. [/quote]
