When my dad moved here from Arkansas, we wanted to change a lot of his bad habits. He smoked and drank, both of which were bad for him with his health issues. So we got him smoking patches and cut back on the beer. We also wanted to improve his quality of living. My wife is a great cook, so he got near enough to gourmet cooking every night. We even paid for him to have Modesto cataract surgery so that he didn’t have to squint at the newspaper in the mornings. However, after all of that, he still resented living in California with us. To this day he tells us how much he wants to go home and escape the “prison” we’ve put him in.
