You need to be empathetic. Imagine you've been an independant adult since the 1950's and now people are trying to tell you what you can and can't do.
I really believe that seniors should be allowed to live their life on their terms, they've paid their dues. They come from a time where you worked hard and kept your mouth shut.
Too often I read about how a senior was abused or taken advantage of and to me they are as innocent as a child. As long as you are always there for support and companionship, I say allow them to live their final years however they please.
