It's a hard task: Caring for elderly parents puts stress on marriages and work. The caregiver feels torn and has internal conflicts. If i spend time with my parents, i can't be with my spouse (and/or children.) depending on your own relationship with his parents, you may feel resentful that they are taking him away from you. Try to give him an opportunity to talk about how he feels. Be supportive if you can be.
