Living with a person senior, involves, !if you care!, but does not override. The person who is in charge of an adult, you must have the ability to not only meet needs must also be open to different things like this:

1.- To recognize the capabilities of the person next to you. It is important that the older person is something more than the caregiver of grandchildren; you must stimulate their capabilities such as the kitchen, helping to organize a party, comment on how you want to live your life, to make you feel comfortable and respected.

2.- To encourage autonomy, not on protect, let him or work with him or her, for his life to be active, doing everything possible to develop their tastes

IMPORTANT: Allow your child to choose places for walks, bring friends home, get involved in groups, in order, to encourage and support.

a.- The elderly should be an ally, not a burden, since the emotional and physical health permits.

b.-To express affection and closeness. Many times the adult complains that the relatives who are close are cold and distant, try to get close to them, hug, kiss, listen, and be loving. A positive value to the relationship.

The people of the third age for all their lived experience are like an encyclopedia in knowledge, which allows you to communicate assertively. To her or the older adult we go when we need…already speaks with wisdom, patience, and calls for respect.
