[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Either step back and refuse to get involved, or give them two choices. If they don't choose either one or keep waffling, step back and refuse to get involved :-) This is what DH and I do with one of our best friends, who is intelligent but a perfectionist, and agonizingly indecisive. Your parents are only going to change for the worst as they become elderly. I have seen this with my parents - all their quirks just become more so! [/quote] OP here. I know, and that's exactly what I'm afraid of. They're not getting any younger and they've been waffling for years about moving into a smaller, more manageable home such as a condo. In the meantime, their house lost a lot of value due to the market and it's becoming more and more cluttered because she can't even decide what paperwork belongs in the garbage and what doesn't (yes, it's ok to throw out a medical bill from 5 years ago if it's all paid up).
