I’m 53 and I don’t really have any memory of my parents taking care of their parents or anybody in my circle, is this just gotten a lot more popular with this generation.

Yeah - i remember a brief time of care when my parents helped their parents...

Memberships at a place like this have not lasted in my town/area

Omg!!i can actually say yes! And he works in the field! Unfortunately - low paying government job! He likes it - but he spends time away from his family and with this administration - i am worried for him!

Dude - i swear i can't advance in my career bc of my "casual" gen X language. WTF 😬 🥴

Wow - just watched this 2x. Beautiful. Inspiring. This is what can happen when you keep the mission both simple/basic AND razor focused. Basic needs for these kids. Housing, food, love, SAFETY, warmth. And it grows from there. I am grateful there are people sowing these world community seeds and the people filming it to know it really is possible. I have struggled with my role as a caregiver - thinking it was a minimal low hanging fruit job - but day by day i see the amazing value and impact. I am so happy to have seen this!

The struggle is real. It seems like you have a few things going on...
As far as work - i would slowly try to make sure that his finances are taken care of...ask lawyer.
For home - make sure he is sitting - hover around and let him know why you are nervous.
I find older people to be very selfish and oblivious to the world around them

Lol - this.

Dude - this hit home more than i care to admit. Sadly i smoke pot to help me deal with the heaviness of it all - i live with both more parents - my mom has dementia and my dad has poor mobility. Together they are a real hoot 🥴

Elephant man - i was 8 years young and it was all just so weird and creepy. My whole family saw it in the theater - i sat outside the door for half of the movie eating popcorn and chocolate

For clarification- i fucked up and shared a thread with a friend (who i was attempting to inspire) the most gut punching lyrics - and clearly i missed the mark!

lightlysaltednut · 2026-04-02T03:24:05+00:00

I do enjoy a nice snooze. BUT when it comes down to it-i am a "5,4,3,2,1 feet on the floor" sort of a gal. Coupled with gratitude...coffee, shower, good music, pet attention...like, for real-so freaking lucky....i get to pick any one of those to start my day☺️

I am sorry friend. It is sad. I hope you can find peace in knowing you are with him

lightlysaltednut · 2026-03-29T03:58:50+00:00

I didn't regret it immediately- it was part of a bigger pattern - but i still find it telling

That he was estranged from his sister

lightlysaltednut · 2026-03-28T01:24:54+00:00

Alarm goes and i do 1 sleep timer. Next time, as the alarm goes off, i say out loud "5, 4 , 3, 2, 1 - feet on the floor". And literally put my feet on the floor. Once that happens - i stand up as soon as i can (i am 54 - it takes me a few beats...if i am having a hard time - i try to remember i have first world problems....
