So true.  One of the unfortunate unintended consequences of the safety net for all Americans (besides the cost) has been the deterioration of that social contract.  The only way we can restore that is by our own example.  As for me, my Mother lives with us strictly for financial reasons.  She has for going on ten years.  We do it because it is our obligation and someday I have to face my maker and He will ask what I did to help my Mom.  I thank him every day for the ability to do that and for my incredible wife who has likewise taken on that obligation.  I know it can't and won't work in many cases but it can and would work in many more than are occurring. 

Of course, as I like to say it, "My wife's mother-in-law lives with us".  Usually takes a few seconds for folks to figure it out.  It has been a great blessing for her and for my kids and she is just part of the family.  Now her dog on the other hand I could do without but once again I am overruled by my daughters........some things never change.
