Multi-generational households are becoming more commonplace. I call it, “flipping the switch.” Used to be, parents took care of us; now, more and more often, we’re taking care of the parents.
Anecdotally, this trend is on the rise. More and more of my clients are identifying either “I want a place for mom/dad, mom & dad to come stay/live with us” either because they’re getting older or because the grandparents want to spend extended periods of time with the grandkids.
