I'm thinking of leaving my family behind to take care of my elderly father
Why do you feel like you should leave your family behind to take care of your father?
I want to live a quiet life.
Not wanting anymore excitement in your life can be calming. But abandoning your family over it seems like going overboard. You can't juggle care for your father and time with your family?
No, I can't.
Fair enough, I understand. Sometimes we have to make sacrifices for the greater good.
