[quote=Anonymous]I just moved my mom against her will. It was for the safety of my Dad (who did want to move). And she did need to move, but was stubborn (and scared, mild dementia). I tricked her into coming to my house. Lied about why I was gone (and DH and DC were there) and moved everything to their new place. It sucked and was stressful. And she is upset about stuff we got rid of (that she told us for years she wanted to get rid of). But it’s been better for everybody involved. At some point older people don’t realize how bad it is, how much they’ve changed because they still think of themselves as the younger version of themselves. (Heck, I still see myself as 16 and am shocked when a 50yo is staring back at me from the mirror. So I understand. ) At some point, the people around them have to force the issue. [/quote]
