I always believed that elderly parents went to live with their children and families once they were widowed or unable to work.
The truth seems to be far different in the case of my family and also my OH's family. I have found quite a few have lived out their last years in the workhouse.One even leaving his 73 year old Dad in the workhose in order to start a new life with his wife and children in New Zealand
I know our families were very poor but was this normal or are these families particularly callous?
