Often children are unwilling to have their parents in care institutions that Medicaid plus SS/retirement benefits will pay for - they make up the difference out of their own pockets. Which is why having long term care insurance is something everyone should consider.

Just for the record I just went threw this with my own Mom, and my MIL. One has the best case scenario, the other only SS. Both had to go to assisted living. Both received good care and respect from both places.
