      I vote for him to stay in his own unmaintained home rather than making the other residents deal with him.

        If you’re not estranged, there are a number of states that will require you to ensure they’re cared for, and even require you to pay the state back for their care.

        Also a possibility of being charged with elder abuse, if you witness an elderly parent living in squalor.

      That’s my dad. I’m no contact for over 20 years. I told him the only way I would talk to him again is if he would go to a psychiatrist/psychologist with me (I want to make sure) his answer was a string of offenses. Now he talks to my SIL about how much he loves me but that I never rewlly loved him and he don’t know why. The audacity
