[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I doubt it's about the expense. They probably don't feel comfortable doing this without you as a support person. Or they don't think they can get from train to college because they don't want to drive a rental car in an unfamiliar area. So much of seniors' demands is them trying to work around their inability and people not wanting to see it for what it is. [/quote] They're very autonomous in all other ways: both work, both are very active and walk miles every day, go out constantly with friends. I get that the driving is really intimidating at their age and I'd never demand they drive that far, but they are demanding it from us and I don't think that's fair either. And yes, i am scared to say no because they will be pissed off.[/quote] Win, win. You definitely won't have to deal with them for awhile then. In the words of Mel Robbins, "Let Them". Let them be pissed. [/quote]
