Several experts say both baby boomers and folks who are already retired are often unprepared to deal with caregiving problems because, "We all look forward to a nice retirement" and don't want to think about issues that could diminish the fantasy.

When you think about retiring, it's tempting to focus on such enjoyable prospects as traveling more or moving into your dream home. Yet as we -- and our parents -- age, it's crucial that we think about the potential downsides, including becoming responsible for the care of another person. By taking action now, you may be able to minimize the financial and emotional stress. The need to help out older parents often becomes apparent at holidays. Sometimes when children visit th...eir folks, they're "shocked," says Bonnie Lawrence, spokesperson for the Family Caregivers Alliance, a nonprofit group that helps locate resources for dealing with an ailing relative. "They see piles of mail and unpaid bills lying around, their parents making mistakes while they're driving, or getting lost when going to a familiar destination such as the grocery store."

While caring for a frail or incapacitated elderly person is a topic you'd probably rather not think about when you're planning for your own retirement, you need to face that it could very well be part of your future. In 1997, an estimated 23% of U.S. households contained at least one person who was helping someone older than 50 with such tasks as feeding and dressing themselves or household chores, according to a study by the AARP and the National Alliance for Caregiving. Consider also the federal government's publication, Older Americans 2000, which says that the percentage of people with "moderate" or "severe" memory impairment increases from 4.4% in those 65 to 69 years old to nearly 36% of people 85 or older.
