[quote=Anonymous]It's helpful is you don't give your parents the impression that they are under a microscope, that all their actions are being evaluated, discussed, shared with others. They keep talking about their appointments, etc, because they don't have much else to talk about. Younger people often talk about the same (boring) day-to-day stuff but are able to communicate with more animation, clever nuance. Accept and meet your parents where they are. If you're personally there, know that you can sit in the room with them, and that's enough. Your company is enough. Your company is valuable. Don't put pressure on them to rise to the occasion of being entertaining.[/quote]
