[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The only thing this list forgets is that relationships are a 2-way street, and human relationships are messy -- even the best ones. To assume you're just going to fade out might really tank your relationship because of your thoughts, no matter what your adult kids think. You may also want to assume that your grandkids will want to hang out with you. Honestly, the i-don't-wanna-be-a-burden people, can sometimes be a burden in their rigidity and closed-off nature. [/quote] I don't understand what you are trying to say? Communicating with adult children is a 2 way street-that is the whole point. I don't get the sense anyone just assumes they will fade away without issue. We want to prepare for memory decline and other issues. Are you saying it's bad to talk about these things and it would be better for our relationships to not talk about it ever? I am very confused about what you are trying to convey.[/quote]
