How do we get our adult children to understand that they are frogs in a pot?

They do not want to believe that the future could be, at best, problematic, and will do nothing to prepare. We can’t do much, since we are in “senior-assisted living.

We will have to depend on our adult son, but his very nice wife is not interested in the thought of “hardship”.

I suppose they see me as the “granny who cried wolf”, because of the Y2K alarm, and now I have no “creds”.

Granny—Yeah, I have that Y2K reputation too.

Now I just tell everyone invest in the stock market and everything will be great—and hope they don’t believe me! :-)
