[quote=Anonymous]You need to accept that this is the level of interaction they want. Keep in mind that for a lot of old people, they don't ENJOY traveling - old people get set in their ways, their routines, their schedules. Their hearing and sight is going so being in their own home is easier - they know where everything is, etc. So traveling has to be worth it for them to give all that up. When my grandfather lived with us, he had a REALLY hard time with eating dinner at 7 or 7:30 at night - he was used to 5:30 and could push to 6. He felt our house was always way too cold for him. He didn't ever want to go upstairs - I think it hurt but he had too much pride to say so. Being old is hard work.[/quote]
