This approach often causes friction and leaves the adult child making a decision that is in the ‘best interest’ of their parent; the parent is left with no option but to comply—and they are not happy campers.

Second, you both can get on the same page about their desires. Many seniors often desire to stay in their own homes for as long as possible.
