Towson, MD -- Just in time for Mother's Day, the national poll found 70% of adult children would overwhelmingly choose their mom over their dad to move in with them if their elderly parents could not take care of themselves.
The survey was commissioned by Senior Helpers, the nation's fastest growing provider of in-home care for seniors.
The news isn't all bad for dad. 72% of females and 58% of the men say they would move dad in if could not take care of himself.
"People will cut many things from their discretionary income such as entertainment or eating out," adds Ross. "But this survey shows people will not scrimp when it comes to taking care of their mothers or their fathers."
