[quote=Anonymous]My parents are smart people and usually voice their unsolicited opinions/advice on various things and, up until the last few years, those opinions/advice have been helpful which I appreciate. Over the past few years the quality and thoughtfulness of their advice has declined. I've tried to explain my concern that while I know they're trying to be helpful when they volunteer information that's factually inaccurate it does more harm than good but it keeps happening. Eventually it's going to reach the point where I just smile and nod and ignore their advice because I don't have the time to research and confirm that it's well-founded but that makes me sad too. Is it just time to accept that they're growing older and out of touch? Should I pretend to listen to indulge them and make them happy?[/quote]
