This week, I'm talking to dads

Author: Diane Stoddart, Certified Long Term Care Consultant, CLTC May 22, 2025 Duration: 10:14
This week, we need to pay attention that LTC is not just a women's issue. It used to be more focused on women because we live longer and are more likely to live alone when help is needed. Today, with so many divorces, we have a lot of single men who will also be living alone when help is needed. But men are the providers for their kids and familiues. There is no time to consider that you won't be providing. LTC insurance helps you continue to provide for and protect your kids, even if you can no longer provide for yourself. It's hard to think and talk about this today, but without a plan, it will be more difficult and costly to your kids later. Watch this 3 minute tear jerking video of a son showering and shaving his dad video When we have help helping our parents, it doesn't mean we don't love them as much. It means they loved us enough to prepare for this day and not overwhelm us.
