Hi ,
My husband holds power of attorney for his mothers financial and health and welfare decisions, his son also holds poa jointly with him, they have recently been disagreeing about certain aspects of her care, we have a domiciliary care company in twice a week, and have employed someone privately for three hours a week to keep her stimulated, take her shopping that sort of thing. My step son now seems to think he has the god given right to make decisions and disagree with much that we have done, I might add that we have managed alone for months with little help from anyone else, and I find this really irritating. He works in care himself and thinks he is a font of knowledge but dealing with the reality is very different and he has no clue of just how demanding and draining she can be, I feel resentful and angry and just want to scream sometimes.
Is this normal?
