I once waited too long to bring something up.
It was about driving. I noticed my dad’s reactions slowing down, his parking getting sloppier. But I froze. I didn’t know what to say — or when to say it.
And then… he backed into someone’s car in the grocery store lot. Thankfully no one was hurt, but I felt sick.
That’s when I realized: avoiding the conversation doesn’t protect your parent — it only delays the pain.
So I created a system to help myself (and now, others) have those conversations without guilt, panic, or conflict.
The result? A simple, respectful framework that takes the fear out of speaking up — and helps you protect your relationship and your parent’s safety.
