Talking to parents about estate planning can be difficult. Oftentimes, parents aren’t interested in the discussion. So to open and maintain a positive dialog, the approach taken makes all the difference.
First, acknowledge that no one likes to talk about their death or most issues associated with their death. We can all understand this. So naturally, when the most common question is asked – What’s going to happen when you pass? – the walls go up.
So, instead of broad, open ended questions that conjure far ranging thoughts on death, try approaching the subject from three separate perspectives: medical, financial, and legacy planning.
Download the “How and Why to Discuss End of Life Discussions with Parents” guide written by Josh Didion Esq. below to learn how to approach loved ones in these different perspectives.
