[quote=Anonymous]Like PP said, we can learn and not do this to our children. I finally had to face the fact that one parent could not stay at home because of Alzheimer’s. If they had planned differently and moved to a home without stairs or done construction to the house, they could have stayed as they wished. However, they chose not to make the adjustments when they were of sound mind. Then, when things became unsafe, there was no choice but to send them somewhere else. Other parent insisted on staying in house after first parent died. I was highly stressed and taking food there and more. Finally, I had to accept they might fall and get hurt and I did not have the ability to force another adult of sound mind to move! They did eventually choose to move. But they made their choices over many decades, and I could only do so much to persuade them to make better choices. [/quote]
