Scenario

When siblings disagree about aging parent care decisions

My brother and I are both caring for our mom who has dementia and we have completely different approaches to what's best for her. He thinks we should move her to a facility and I want to keep her at home and it's becoming this terrible ongoing argument where we both think the other person doesn't really understand what she needs.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Two people who love the same person are discovering that their different ways of expressing care are creating conflict exactly when they most need to support each other.
