In general, children are not typically reimbursed for being full-time caregivers for their parents, as caregiving arrangements are usually informal and not legally compensated. However, some programs or services may offer financial assistance or stipends for caregivers, depending on the circumstances and local regulations. It's important to explore options like Medicaid programs, state-funded caregiver support initiatives, or community resources that may provide some compensation or support for caregivers. Consulting with social services or legal professionals may also help in understanding available options.
