10 Resources for the Sandwich Generation

Taking care of children and parents at the same time? I know we’re not alone because at least 10 other people wrote books about it. Check them out here:

  1. The Complete Eldercare Planner, Second Edition: Where to Start, Which Questions to Ask, and How to Find Help
  2. Unwrapping the Sandwich Generation. Life Vignettes about Seniors & Their Adult Boomer Children
  3. The Sandwich Generation:Caught Between Growing Children and Aging Parents (free e-book!)
  4. The Hard Questions For Adult Children And Their Aging Parents: 100 Essential Questions For Facing The Future Together, with Courage and Compassion
  5. Navigating the Journey of Aging Parents: What Care Receivers Want
  6. Caring for Your Aging Parents: A Common-Sense Guide for Transforming a Difficult Time Into a Loving, Cooperative Relationship
  7. Caring for Your Parents: The Complete AARP Guide
  8. The Complete Idiot’s Guide to Long-Term Care Planning
  9. Caring for Yourself While Caring for Your Aging Parents
  10. Kiplinger’s Financial Solutions for the Sandwich Generation: Ensuring You Have Enough for You, Your Children, and Your Parents

Maybe you and I could meet those people after work for a beer.

Oh. Wait, that’s right, I can’t go because the kids have homework and my dad is having surgery tomorrow.

You go on without me, I’ll read the books at home.

    I couldn’t help but laugh at that last comment because while I was reading down the list of books, I couldn’t help but wonder… “Where they hell did they find the time to write the book?”

  2. Elizabeth-
    Very useful webpage! Nice going, you are providing a real service here.
    I will start my webpage soon after finishing some course-work in the next few months.
    I will reference your work here (as I just did for a friend), warmly, Patrick Roden RN
