In this episode of Unhinged titled "Aging Parents," host Teresa Rummer and her co-host Maz tackle the sensitive yet inevitable subject of caring for aging parents. They begin by sharing personal experiences, with Teresa discussing her complex relationship with her own mother and Maz reflecting on his deep bond with his mother. The conversation touches on cultural differences in caregiving, as Maz explains how his Persian upbringing instilled in him the responsibility to care for his parents, while Teresa recounts the emotional distance with her mother due to past abuse.
They explore the stress of balancing careers, family life, and caregiving, raising the question of whether to bring parents into their homes or seek external help. The discussion also addresses societal issues, such as the increasing number of elderly in nursing homes, which they attribute to a lack of emotional attachment in some families. Throughout, both hosts emphasize the importance of doing what's best for your own situation, while encouraging listeners to consider the emotional and practical aspects of elder care.
