Don't worry, there will come a time in their elderly years when they need care, and you'll have that talk about putting them in a nice retirement home.

And you'll say to them......"Well, good luck with that."

And hey, you may get extra lucky. That day may last for years until they finally understand what you've been telling them this whole time.

My mother thought she was going to move in with me when I got a house for close to a decade against better attempts to disabuse her of that notion. It was only after I bought one and moved in with my wife/partner that she realized just how wrong she was.

That's always nice.

Thankfully it doesn't matter to me anymore because I ended up buying her forever home for her. And a pine box is a much better place for her than my home lol.
