Parenting Your Parent

As parents age, the relationship between parents and adult children often begins to change. Adult children may find themselves taking on greater responsibilities, helping with important decisions, and navigating changing care needs while balancing their parents’ independence, privacy, and wishes. Knowing when to step in and how to approach these conversations can be challenging.

In this educational webinar, Certified Elder Law Attorney Linda Anderson discusses practical strategies for supporting aging parents, including conversations about finances, healthcare, living arrangements, long-term care, and legal planning. She also addresses common mistakes families make when trying to help, such as adding children to bank accounts or property deeds without understanding the potential consequences.

You will gain a better understanding of the important documents and plans families should have in place, how to prepare for changing care needs, and steps you can take to make informed decisions before a crisis occurs, all while preserving your parents’ independence and maintaining a healthy family relationship.
