What makes relationships difficult? Learning to communicate effectively with respect, empathy and patience. If you value a relationship then learning to communicate is essential. Here are some personal relationship tips to consider:
If you noticed your elderly parents need help, respectfully discuss your observation and solution.
When discussing with your aging parents they may need help, be sensitive to their fear of losing control.
If talking to your aging parents about help becomes too frustrating, you may need to back off.
Show patience and empathy if your parents decide to divorce – your world may change but it’s their life.
Stop making assumptions about your loved ones’ actions or comments.
