Scenario

When families face tax complexity and cognitive decline

My family is dealing with my elderly father's increasingly complex tax situation as his cognition declines and we siblings can't agree on how much to simplify his finances versus maximize his tax efficiency and we're all projecting our own fears about aging and control onto these decisions.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Adult children must balance competing values around autonomy, protection, and financial optimization when cognitive changes complicate tax planning for an aging parent.
