It doesn't seem to be a popular sentiment, but I agree. My parents are retired, moderately wealthy, and in reasonably good health, yet the burden to spend time with them seems to be entirely on my partner and me, who have demanding careers. Not to mention, my in-laws are in worse health than my parents, so now we have to prioritize our limited travel time between two sets of elderly parents, visiting our friends dispersed across the planet, and engaging in our own interests. Quitting our jobs and moving to be near my parents (or my partner's) isn't an option, so the status quo of seeing them every other year will remain until they decide to change it.
