A compendium of family scenarios for those dealing with the guilt,
worry, and difficult decisions that come with eldercare. Is it time
for your aging father to stop driving? How can you balance your
career opportunities with your mother’s care needs? Can your
parents cope on their own? Is it time for long-term care? Given
their reluctance, is that even an option? Millions of people are
dealing with aging parents and are stunned with the complexities
and demands of their care. As demographics change and societies
adapt, that caring — that parenting — isn’t getting any
simpler. In the fourth edition of this eldercare classic, advocate
Bart J. Mindszenthy and geriatrician Dr. Michael Gordon present
twenty-seven case studies of families working through the eldercare
puzzle. With new scenarios covering legalized marijuana and
medically assisted dying, this revised and updated edition of
Parenting Your Parents makes the case for good planning, family
unity, and being aware of your loved ones’ health. With the help
of Gordon and Mindszenthy’s expert advice, care providers are
able to shed guilt and worry and become confident that they have
done all they could to make their parents’ latter years as
fulfilling and comfortable as possible.
