DISPUTING OVER CARE OF ELDERLY PARENTS 

 

We live in an aging society and it’s common for adult siblings to disagree on how best to provide for the care of their elderly mother and/or father.  Should the elderly parent be allowed to live at home if that’s their preference, or should he/she be moved into a care facility against their will?

 Adult siblings often have different opinions. One wants to honor the parent’s wish to live at home, the other one wants to move the parent(s) to a care facility where he/she/they will be safe and well supervised.

The Columbia Basin Dispute Resolution Center helps adult siblings work through their differences when deciding what’s best for their parent(s).  Our trained mediators can guide persons through the conflict they’re experiencing to the point where they find common ground on which they can reach a mutually satisfying agreement.
