In this episode of The Aging Untold Podcast, our experts unpack the friction that occurs when adult children try to step in and take over. We challenge the concepts of "role reversal" and "once a man, twice a child," arguing that older adults deserve support, autonomy, and the right to define their own quality of life. Discover how to balance safety concerns with respect for your parents' independence.
