- Shows the heartbreak of two families as they make emotional and financial decisions about what to do about their aging parents. While the rich and the poor have avenues of help, the middle class have few avenues of escape. Focuses on the hard-working middle class citizens who have only a tiny nest egg, cannot afford private nursing homes and are considered too prosperous for government assistance. All too often the care of aged parents becomes the burden of their middle aged children who suffer resentment as well as guilt.
