EP 146 - Should Your Parent Stop Driving? The Signs and Scripts You Need
Manage episode 524989520 series 3649702
At some point, almost every family faces one of the hardest conversations in aging: Should Mom or Dad stop driving? 🚗
This isn’t just about independence — it’s about safety, dignity, and timing.
In this episode, Should Your Parent Stop Driving? The Signs and Scripts You Need, I walk you through:
• The early warning signs families often overlook 👀
• Why waiting for a crash or ticket is a mistake ⚠️
• Exact scripts you can use to start the conversation without shame or confrontation 💬
• What to do after the keys are set aside so your parent doesn’t feel isolated 🤝
I work with families across the San Francisco Bay Area, and I’ve seen how delaying this conversation can turn into a crisis overnight. My goal is to help you approach this with clarity, compassion, and a plan.
