Maltesemom, that is an interesting question about how many current grown children are caring for their parents health care needs. I would be curious, too. I bet the number is staggering.

Something like that really should be on the U.S. census so that the U.S. can plan ahead because when the baby boomers get to that I-need-help stage, will there be enough senior housing and caregivers to help us?

The old U.S. census [pre-1940], I could tell from my family tree census if a parent was living with a grown child due to name and age in that household. But there was no information if the parent was still on their own but needed the grown children to run back and forth to help.

When I get a chance, I will check Google to see what information is there for today's elders. We could compare notes.
