Beck, Martha. "Caring for Aging Parents - Martha Beck Advice - Oprah.com."Oprah.com. N.p., n.d. Web. 30 Apr. 2013.
This article is about helping you and your parents cope with their aging by means of nourishing a sick sense of humor and think about how much care is actually needed. This goes well with King Lear because I think that Goneril and Regan need to learn some of these strategies to help not only themselves, but their father as well.

How to Handle an Elderly Parent's Bad Behavior--Annotated Bibliography
Sollitto, Marlo. "How to Handle an Elderly Parent's Bad Behavior." AgingCare. N.p., n.d. Web. 30 Apr. 2013.
This article is about, as the title says, how to handle an elderly parent's bad behavior. It goes into detail about behavior such as yelling, swearing, not showering, paranoia, and hoarding. This fits with King Lear because he's basically turning into an adult child, a brat. He's becoming very cranky and yelling and going into long speeches and curses towards his daughters.

Sibling Strife--Annotated Bibliography
Hulin, Belinda. "Sibling Strife: How to Resolve the 3 Senior Care Issues Siblings Fight About Most." N.p., 4 May 2011. Web. 25 Apr. 2013.
This article is about how one woman lost a lot because she was completely occupied while she took care of her mom. Her siblings didn't really help her at all, which sort of shows that different relationships with the parents will lead to different roles in caring for them. This fits well with King Lear because Cordelia probably would have taken care of him if she wasn't banished, and Goneral and Regan are sort of turning on the king and don't really want to take care of him.
