Your partner may push for a nurse
There will come a time when you and your partner alone cannot take care of your parent. Your partner will recognize this time earlier and easier than you do, because this is all so personal for you. You can feel like you’re being selfish if you hire a live-in or part-time nurse for your parent. You may feel like you should give up your own life and pursuits to be by your parent’s side at all times. And you can feel like your partner is pressuring you to do something that seems selfish.
