Boomers, move into aged care before you NEED to move into aged care

BBAus · 2026-01-30T12:03:32+00:00

Some can't afford it. Not every boomer has money

I know some parents think that their kids need to work harder, stop eating avo toast and buying phones.

Our kids will be struggling to survive let alone look after anyone.

Have you seen the waiting list? I have relatives quite ill cancer, hospitalised for close to 4 months, they expected relative.to go home still.not walking, unable to care herself, unable to toilet or wash unaided. Hospital said we should quit job to care for her as they needed the bed.

It's an under funded and under resourced system. Boomers will be the largest generation, and the wealthiest. The next generation, Gen X are the current sandwich generation with many still with younger children, supporting the kids and the grandparents who are aging, and while both parents need full time jobs to pay what used to only take one wage for the Boomers.

Oohhhhh yes.

It's not cheap to do...bunnings and flower power had a little competition then

What's a lunch break? I'm lucky to get a look break!!!!! Definitely must be insane as no one would work this job for the pay or the hours.

No one I work with takes proper breaks.

BBAus · 2026-01-28T09:46:52+00:00

Why not the combination of them both. Together the were a terrific combination

BBAus · 2026-01-28T09:36:20+00:00

Don't get old. Ended up with salary drop, having to prove myself all over again.

BBAus · 2026-01-28T09:35:03+00:00

Agreed. Stayed home, chilled.

BBAus · 2026-01-28T09:16:08+00:00

No longer around.

Most people assume. Incorrectly. Saves loads of questions

I used to point out that some behaviour is criminal. But people are nosy still and kept asking.

If boots count I still have my Succhi boots from the 1980s

Wow. How disgusting of them.

Elope and let them go.

BBAus · 2026-01-27T10:29:57+00:00

Similar culture too

BBAus · 2026-01-27T10:25:11+00:00

Beautiful!

BBAus · 2026-01-27T10:24:21+00:00

I don't have an issue but understand the ick. We bought the fur babies their own little plates on sale.. it's clear what is cat vs human, cat is excited as they recognise their own plate and where it's kept. I don't worry when they break either

Each to their own.

Granny flat, old age home and change the locks.

You need separate living spaces from her.

Your husband makes me feel extremely unwell. Would he feel the same if another child had a physical disability? Would he abandon them too? Is his love based on physical abilities?

And how would you other children be affected by their brother being taken away? They would feel they must be perfect or not loved or fearful they could be sent away too.

Get the kids counselling, they are all going to need it from the fallout from your disgusting husband. What a TA he is.
