Raising your parents...

The last couple of weeks have been a bit trying emotionally because I have had to confront my parents about my father's driving. My Dad is 72 but looks and moves physically like an 92 year old. He has terrible difficulty moving his body and remaining alert for any period of time. This has not prevented him from driving and he has had several accidents as a result. My parents both just seem to want to ignore the elephant in the room. Finally, I confronted them both and layed out exactly what I would do if he continues to drive. Needless to say I am the least favorite person in my family right now. I have to believe I did the right thing and have to hope that it has some impact on them.
