    Hi Harshed, Thank you for sharing this. I shared it with my siblings, as we are just beginning down this road with my 90-year-old dad.

    Although I am an only child, it was useful to consider behaviors of my stepparent’s adult children over the last few years that I found mystifying and maddening.
