My mother, sister, and I are thick as thieves so we've got each other covered. I hear what you're saying about creditors. </p> http://babyboomersus.net/topic/elizabethian-law-from-1601#post-34 Wed, 03 Feb 2010 15:28:06 +0000 Joe 34@http://babyboomersus.net/ <p>Eva,<br /> I feel the same way. Even though both my parents have since move on to the great beyond, I really didn't mind changing pops diapers as much as I thought.<br /> Problem is, the law is about Paying their Old (not medical) Bills, not taking care of them. It's not difficult to pay THEM back, but Paying their Creditors is a horse of a different color.<br /> At least in my book. </p> http://babyboomersus.net/topic/elizabethian-law-from-1601#post-32 Wed, 03 Feb 2010 13:26:25 +0000 Eva Pasco 32@http://babyboomersus.net/ <p>This topic may have incubated for six months, but I've revived it.</p> <p>Law or not, I do not feel burdened in the least if I have to pick up the slack for my one living parent. No matter what I could do for her, I could never repay her for all of the love, encouragement, and support I still receive on a daily basis. </p> http://babyboomersus.net/topic/elizabethian-law-from-1601#post-5 Fri, 24 Jul 2009 19:47:45 +0000 Joe Hauckes 5@http://babyboomersus.net/ <p>I wrote a post over on the BB Blog about how an old English law from 1601 could affect any of us today.<br /> In essence, we may be or could be held responsible for our parents debts when they are unable to fend for themselves.<br /> <a href="http://blog.babyboomersus.net/2009/07/ever-hear-of-the-elizabethan-poor-laws-of-1601/">Check it out...</a> </p>
