Senior bullying and taking action to prevent it
Q After much debate and even some coercing, my mother who is in her late 70s moved to a senior apartment complex.
We were all so relieved. We thought that she would be happy, make new friends, have more opportunities for social connections, and in general be able to relax and enjoy things without the stress of home ownership and all of the upkeep.
I think we may have made a huge mistake.
