Media Release:
Today's Economic Chaos Requires that
You Talk with Your Aging Parents
about the Future
Most Baby Boomers unconsciously set themselves up to create future crises for their aging parents. Boomers have long let their fears or discomfort seduce them into putting off vital conversations with their elderly parents about finances, housing, or advance care planning. In today's economy, those excuses could land your parents AND you in the poor house. You need to talk now and plan now to protect your parents' financial future, medical expenses and legacy, as well as your own.
The consequences of NOT starting these delicate conversations is serious. We've all seen the headlines:
"Woman, 90, shoots self inside foreclosed home"
"Geriatric Psychiatrist Sees Anxiety Gripping Senior Citizens in Economic Crisis
"Boomers delay their own retirement to take care of aging parents"
Dale will teach your audience how and when to talk to aging parents, what to talk about, and how to keep the conversations going.
Rev. Dale Susan Edmonds is not a doctor, lawyer or financial planner, but in 25 years of ordained ministry, she's seen the terrible pain caused after families failed to have the tough conversations with their parents. Dale uses her skills in conflict resolution and family communication coaching to teach your audience how to start the talks that could save thousands of dollars, serious legal headaches, or, even, avert a family war.
