[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My folks don't want to leave their house (mid 80s) but I really want them to move[/quote] Maybe start out by talking with them about how they envision the next 20 years. Are there stressors about their current living situation? (Lawn care, home repair, driving) Where do they see themselves? Do they never to intend to move, or just not now? What would they prefer to have happen if one or both begins needing some medical care? How will their finances work in any of these scenarios?[/quote] Great advice. Maybe they have - or can be prompted to develop - a plan for aging in place. If they don't have plan, you need to tell them that you are woried about what will happen if one of them needs medical care. GL, it is a tough convo to have, but so necessary.[/quote]
