I had lunch with a group of long-standing friends yesterday, and of course we were all discussing children/grand children. One couple lost their youngest son quite suddenly some years ago, and his wife and children moved abroad, although they see them quite often. The eldest son - the one I am talking about - has always been 'there', I think he is great and would be proud to have him as a son. He married a young lady who was never going to make old bones, cared for her and their daughter, and when she died continued to look after the daughter and her boyfriend live with him until just recently when they moved out. He has also continued to look after his mother in law who is totally alone. He was made redundant several years ago, but is fortunate enough to have an income, and so is really free now to do as he likes, and has decided to move to Wales - his parents, and another friend think he is being selfish, moving so far away! and the other friend seems to think he has a responsibility to his mother in law to stay near. I think he has a right to a life of his own now - interested in your opinions.
