[quote=Anonymous]Cognitive decline during the aging process means some people get more impulsive and lose their social filter. That's when you see who was harboring uncharitable thoughts all this while and keeping it to themselves! It's sad when it happens to your own parent, not just because you bear the brunt of it, but also because much cognitive functioning is inherited, so you are more likely to become that way yourself. I'm watching my father decline right now, and knowing his two parents had dementia, I'm really hoping my genes have reassorted and I won't succomb to dementia in my 70s. My mother has MS, and it affects her thinking, so all in all, I'm not favored in the genes department![/quote]
