Communicating with your parent about their caregiving needs can be a daunting prospect. Many times, the challenge for us is that we have already determined the desired outcome, and our goal is simply to get them to go along. 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.
All being well, the day will soon come when adult children are faced with caring for their elderly parents. This may not be an easy time, but it can be improved by knowing ahead how to prepare as their primary caregiver. The ideal time to talk about such care is well before your parents get to that stage. Having this conversation accomplishes two things: first, having the conversation prepares your parents to recognize the point where they begin to slow down and need help. 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.
