This study reports results from a qualitative investigation of the experiences of 10 Mexican American adult sibling pairs (Total participants = 20) who were caring for an aging parent. The specific focus is on findings regarding caregiver selection/designation. Template analysis guided data analyses. Findings include 1) various expectations for why adult child should be/are involved in caregiving, 2) caregivers' perceptions that caregivers and care recipients should be of the same gender, and 3) individual and family-level pathways to assuming the role of caregiver. Implications for research and practice are discussed
