Much has been written about the "Sandwich Generation" - those caught between caring for their children while simultaneously caring for their parents. Many people feel the crunch of time and demands and forget that while caring for others, the caregiver also needs care.
Balancing a full-time job with child care is exponentially more difficult when aging or incapacitate parents enter the mix. Children may not understand having to be second or even third on the list when Grandpa or Grandma requires precedence. Family stress compounds when siblings are pressured to provide care without compensation because it is "more convenient" due to proximity to the marital or parental home. When Fathers and Mothers become the burden, HELP IS AVAILABLE!
Please look to community resources for counseling and assistance. If you find yourself overwhelmed with caring while being forgotten, give me a call. Aubrey Ducker, 407-645-3297 or visit my website at www.floridaguardianattorney.com
