[quote=Anonymous]It really depends on your parent's personality. The easy going ones with empathy who were involved enough with their own elders to face reality will do it with gentle nudges. The selfish, entitled ones will not understand why you can't keep uprooting your life for them and many of them stay put no matter what. You try to convince them enough times that you will know you did your best. Then, you just have to make peace with the fact they could be on the floor with a broken hip for a full day or die falling down steep steps, but it happened on their terms the way they wanted to live.[/quote]
