Communication between a son or daughter and their parents can be difficult and stressful, especially when it seems like the message you’re trying to send always seems to be ignored – for example, bringing up assisted living facilities and your loved one changing the subject. Before getting irrational and losing your temper, it’s important to understand the perspective of your Elderly or Senior loved one and know how to respond in an effective manner.
This article on Caring.com has an article titled How to Talk to the Elderly About Tough Family Issues that explains the conflicting life stages of an Elderly parent and middle-aged adults. It gives a couple examples of communication scenarios between an Elderly parent and their adult children.
