Helping Aging Parents Make Difficult Decisions: The Hardest Conversation

Helping Aging Parent can be a challenge at the best of times, I know because I am that aging parent! I wrote this book to help my own children understand how I do and will feel about how they approach me when I need their help. As Baby Boomers now reach retirement age they are also adult children of aging parents. Often these parents are healthy and self-sufficient, which it good news, but that may not always be the case. Most seniors with adult children are well aware of how much the world around them has changed. They need assistance in understanding how those changes can now offer options not previously available to them. The issue comes when they don't or won't ask for help. This book is a guide for adult children to help their parents make tough decisions. These are decisions that the parents are either unaware need to be made or that they are unwilling to make. Helping parents is no easy task, most parents are reluctant to have their children meddle in their lives. This book can guide you through difficult conversations and make them less stressful for both parties. This book is written by someone who has been there and had to have this conversation with parents and older siblings. That experience is incorporated into when and how the conversation should occur, what some of the issues that will come up and provides options for dealing with them.
