[quote=Anonymous]OP I responded to your other thread. "At 81, sometimes resisting a hearing aid is about avoiding younger people's demands for constant conversation/interaction." It's hard to watch elderly relatives who would rather not make the extra effort to engage, both because it's nicer for you when they do, and you know that engaging will keep them young. But they are adults and also need to stay in control of their lives. Can you see how you are coming across as bossy and controlling? It's not helpful in the long run. It also probably won't get you what you want. Personally I think you emailed your MIL out of turn. A conversation like that (you should talk to FIL about…) needs to be held on the phone or in person. Other people wrote this and you didn't listen: you need to stop making this about your daughter. It's either about your FIL or you need to drop it. [/quote]
