New Book: The Parent Care Conversation

Dan Taylor has written a book titled The Parent Care Conversation. Here's an interview where he talks about the steps in the conversation process. And this is from his highly informative website:


The Family Relationship Time Bomb

It's awkward and uncomfortable but it's critical to talk about providing for the care of your aging parents now. Most ignore the problem, some think they'll get by, but a catastrophic event or prolonged illness can quickly deplete a lifetime of saving.

Worse than the financial crisis is the relationship crisis that often occurs as families struggle to deal with this issue after the fact. It's a family relationship time bomb.


The Parent Care Conversation is a good read, and we've added it to our "Virtual Book Shelf" that you can see on the bottom right of our blog. And note that Dan has his own blog (URL: http://www.parentcaresolution.com/blog.asp).
