Five conversations to have with your parents and elders during the pandemic

In the middle of a crisis, there are several important conversations to have with your parents and loved ones over 60 sooner rather than later. A colleague of mine in the American Academy of Estate Planning Attorneys just had an article published on this topic, titled the Five Conversations to Have with Parents and Elders During the Pandemic. I thought it might be a helpful resource for you and your loved ones. You can find it here.

There is also a comprehensive guide linked in the article. The guide walks you through not only the important conversations but also how to start these conversations, numerous ideas and links to activities specifically geared to loved ones over 60, and a specific list of questions to ask your parents and elders to come closer together through this pandemic.

If you have loved ones who are at a loss for how to support their families, this might be a helpful starting place. It touches on the importance of having your affairs in order, in addition to topics that will help you deepen relationships in the midst of the storm.

Tab Artis became an attorney the old-fashioned way: he read the law in the solitude of the early morning hours before work as a full-time paralegal, and late into the night after his family had gone to bed. Despite having never enrolled in law school, Mr. Artis fulfilled the requirements of the California State Bar, and did what few think or even dare to do: sit for the California Bar Exam without having attended law school. Between November 1997 and November 2007, only eight people had taken the California Bar Exam without a law degree and passed on the first try. Mr. Artis is one of those eight people.
