FOLKS WRITE songs, poems, and even sport tattoos praising mom and now the results of a new national survey should make moms feel even more special. Just in time for Mother’s Day, a new national poll found 70 percent (7 out of 10) adult children would overwhelmingly choose their mom over their dad to move in with them if their elderly parents could not take care of themselves. The survey was commissioned by Senior Helpers, the nation’s fastest growing provider of in-home care for seniors.
By a slightly smaller margin, 67 per cent of the respondents say if mom was not able to move in, they would prefer mom live on her own with help, rather than move into a nursing home or assisted living facility. In addition, 80 per cent (8 out of 10) of both men and women say they would pay out of their own pocket for their mom or dad’s care.
