[quote=Anonymous]You can't force mentally competent adults to do what you want. It can be frustrating. I have been trying to get my dad to stop driving for the last two years, but he won't. He and my mom have chosen to live in a completely car dependent suburb where this is a major inconvenience to them, and he refuses to take taxis or to let us know when he needs to go places so that we can drive him. We do our best to prevent it but I know he still drives around his suburb and sometimes longer distances multiple times a week when we cannot be there.[/quote]
