Scenario

When families disagree about aging in place

My adult children keep trying to get me to downsize and move somewhere smaller but this house holds fifty years of memories and I'm not ready, and every conversation about it feels like they're trying to manage me instead of understanding what this place means. We all want what's best but we have completely different ideas about what that looks like and I can feel the frustration building on all sides.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Multiple generations are operating from love but can't bridge the gap between practical concerns and emotional attachment to place and independence.
