My father told me he would retire himself if he ever had to go to a nursing home

I'm pretty sure everyone's dad says that. As a dad, I've said it too. I'd almost rather be in prison than a nursing home, it's the same atmosphere but way cheaper.

It's not unlikely you'd end up in a home ran by the same folks that own and run private prisons and supply schools with food.
