Parent to Child – Child to Parent

Below is a link to my blog regarding this topic. When does the change happen that instead of us being the parent and our children obey our rules to them feeling they have the right to impose their rules on us?

Sometimes it can feel like just because we have grey hair or no hair, that we are viewed as far less capable than we actually are. Children may ‘strongly advise’ that we not do many of the things we have been doing for years. If – heaven forbid – we were to have a fall when doing something that they deem unsafe, this can only serve to support their case.

Here’s the clip if you would like to have a listen.

I am a retired Social Worker having retired in May 2024. I had been a Social Worker for over 20 years and for the sake of my health and wellbeing I chose to retire early. I have some literary projects underway and am enjoying the freedom of no longer working. Working on my projects at my own pace and enjoying my new hobby of lawn bowls is a wonderful thing. No regrets and a new kind of busy in retirement is wonderful.
