[quote=Anonymous]On matters of business and finance, appeal to his logical side with constant reminders that you are working with him (not in place of him so as to save his sense of dignity) to protect his assets. Always acknowledge his primacy so that he doesn’t feel like he’s losing all control. That’s why PP’s idea of calling it “associate work“ is fabulous. We have good luck with my father-in-law bye saying we’re “streamlining” things or “Setting up the online accounts this place now requires“ because he has no internet savvy. On a fundamental level he knows he’s losing control and that’s scary to him.[/quote]
