Top Ten Signs Your Elderly Parents Need You At Home

In no particular order, and an incomplete list at this point. Feel free to add more in the comments.

  1. You can't find any clean dishes in the cupboard. Everything that's in there is kind of dirty. ("It's wasteful for two people to use the dishwasher")
  2. Your Dad hasn't used a turn signal in a year.
  3. While at home, you find yourself wondering "I wonder what Mom is burning for dinner".
  4. They watch the Game Show Network.
  5. They fight over the motorized wheelchair cart thingie at Wal-Mart.
  6. You worry that the movie Gran Torino has given your Dad ideas.
