[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is not nearly enough information, OP. But generally, I treated my parents like they adults they were. How they live their lives is up to them. Why do you need to give them unsolicited advice. There are a million threads here arguing the different sides about how to treat elderly parents. Most people land on the side of treating them like children. Please read Atul Gawande's Being Mortal and see if that helps you reframe your thinking.[/quote] +1 I can’t imagine being so presumptuous [/quote] In my case, my parents actually have made it clear that they expect all of their stuff to be my problem.[/quote] Tell them it's all going to the landfill then.[/quote]
