Is your friend? How about the therapist (who will expect to be paid for their time, travel, and accommodations)? Do you understand that this may require multiple trips?

Is your wifi password protected?

And guess who gets to pay for it to be released? That's right, boys & girls - @Jaimec1220. I believe proof of insurance will be required, as well. If they refuse to do so? Well, there's a different kettle of fish. The impound lot/tow truck company WILL get their money, and so will the...

I don't want to pile on, but has it occurred to you that she does this due to the chaos of having an alcoholic mother? I agree with the others - get into treatment and get a lawyer. ASAP. At this point, it's hard to find fault with Grandma.

Calling a spade a spade - in the US, it's rape. Pure and simple. Yes, even if you're married.

Bear in mind that weight loss and dementia go hand-in-hand, often even with the best of care.

There is also the small matter of being licensed before representing someone. ;)

So daughter went to college She is exposed to new people and ideas and forms opinions that Mom/Dad don't agree with. Age-old story. The more push-back you/Mom give, the more firmly she'll plant her feet. And frankly? Taking back the car as a result of your disapproval?Petty and spiteful.

Good for her. I hope she wins, too. Then someone can insist on claiming a fetus on their tax return, file for child support, etc.

Further thoughts after reading @commentator 's post... perhaps try to find out when the less... mindful... aide is on at mealtimes and try to be sure to be there on those days. Sounds as though there is at least one aide who takes more care. The problem with getting that one aide in "trouble" is...

Maybe the should be squeezed out?

One of the things I've found when it comes to many facilities is being present as much as possible, especially if you change up the times you go vs. a set schedule. I know that can be difficult sometimes, both physically and emotionally. You get to know the staff, they get to know you, and I...

There should also be an Ombudsman affiliated/associated with the facility - their contact info *should* be posted in several prominent places. A lot of people I know with Loved Ones in care due to dementia have installed cameras in their LO's rooms (do check on the legality of that in your...

Good for them. Given attendees would all be pushing 70, it's a prudent requirement.

Also - 50/50 with SPED kids may be a problem if you move that distance.

This is an awkward sentence that is easily taken the opposite way intended. Do NOT file contempt for piddly reasons - it pisses judges off.

If Mom impinges on your time or otherwise goes against your court orders, you can file to have her found in contempt. I'd advise caution in not doing so for piddly things as that's a sure-fire way to annoy the judge. In terms of travel, it's usually wise to allow some leeway on either end, as...

Then Mom asks that the court order Dad to provide the information directly. If he doesn't? She files to have him found in contempt. It's not that complicated. At the end of the day? If lay people like (many of) us can do the research to figure this out? So can she/you.

Great song.

Me? Any meeting with lights turned down for a PowerPoint. Well, actually.... most any meeting..
