The times they are a changing ...
let’s start with the facts....
THE CORE ISSUE: Each generation has different challenges, and one of the current challenges is the current demographic: never has our planet contained so many older people. This is a new phenomenon, and presents new challenges; as the nuclear family dominated in the Western world and presented new challenges for child care, so this demographic presents challenges in elder care; and VERY FEW WILL BE UNTOUCHED BY CARING FOR THEIR PARENTS.
POP identifies a new stage in the life cycle; the POPcycle. Developed by Jane Wolf Waterman ( http://www.parentingourparents.org/about-jane/ ) POP Family Coaching identifies the various trigger points and stages in ‘Parenting Our Parents’. These various trigger points and stages rear their head in different aspects of our lives and those of our loved ones: financial, legal and emotional - these issues emerge and evolve over the period of the cycle. POP Family Coaching can help by providing guidance, support and structure in navigating what can be a sometimes hazardous and often stressful process if tackled without support or guidance. It helps isolate the issues and put them in their appropriate compartment and in so doing provides a road map for the whole family.
