[quote=Anonymous]We did this with my MIL - and there was a lot more attachment as it was her parent's home. We had a multi-year plan starting with showing her some new condo's that were really targeted for mixed ages. It checked small boxes of things that bothered her - had unground parking and storage. But it also was in a great location so she could easily connect with the community (and would be a place where her friends would be interested in meeting her for lunch) She needed to see that not only could she see herself there - but she needed to see that it could address some of her "traditions" (How would she host Christmas) From the child side - it is a conversation about the things like cost to maintain and heat and what happens if .... but you need to make it a conversation talking about how the living experience will be day to day.
