Addresses the issue of caring for one's aging parents, from the parents' perspective. This book proposes a different approach to this aspect of gerontology: expressing the voices of care-receivers themselves. It explains such phenomena as guilt, role reversal, family dynamics, financial stress, and caring for oneself while caring for another.
