Description & Overview

When an ageing parent needs care, families are tested. One sibling may live nearby, another far away. One may have more flexibility, another less. Resentments build. Decisions are questioned. This practical guide helps you name the imbalance, communicate without accusation, and create a care plan that respects everyone's circumstances—including your own. Drawing on real-world examples and family therapy insights, it walks you through the emotional landscape of unequal care: guilt, gratitude, grief, and how to have the conversations you've been avoiding. It offers strategies for renegotiating roles, setting boundaries, and involving professional support when needed. You will learn how to share information, manage money and legal matters transparently, and care for your parent without losing your sibling relationship. Part of The Caring for a Parent Library.
