Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Based on traditional gender roles and family dynamics in the United States, it is more likely for a daughter or daughter-in-law to take on the role of primary caregiver for an ill mother than a son. While it is possible that the son may also assist in caregiving, it is less likely that he will take on the primary responsibility. The option of her best friend as a caregiver is unlikely unless she has explicitly designated this person as her healthcare proxy or power of attorney.
