YES! We lived in mom’s tummy. We lived with our mom & dad rent free, free meals, free laundry service and on and on. They paid for our toys and our school supplies. When it’s time, they should live in their children’s home instead of a nursing home. Of course, there are many factors involved.
My mom did have to go to a nursing home after being hit by a drunk driver and in coma for months She woke and had too much brain damage and lived as a vegetable for 20 years! I was her guardian, and I had to have her moved three times due to poor situations at the nursing homes!
My dad had to go to nursing home because of dementia. He didn’t know any of us kids. He was kind of mean. Not there very long when he fell, and the bed post went through his check and out his neck! No bumper pads, that one was sued.
Avoid nursing homes if all possible. I am sorry my parents had to experience them!!

I agree Rhonda nursing homes should not be a choice at all for anyone and thank you for sharing your comment.
