Prepare the conversations with aging parents that everyone postpones — the driving talk, the money talk, the care-options talk, the moving talk — each with an opener that doesn't ambush, a dignity-first script, rehearsal against realistic resistance, and the fallback when it goes badly. Use when someone says 'I need to talk to my dad about driving', 'my mum won't discuss her finances', 'we need to talk about care', or is dreading a visit for exactly this reason. Produces the conversation plan, a rehearsal, and the small-steps fallback. A preparation tool, not family therapy — and it says so when the situation needs more.

From the source SKILL.md

These conversations get postponed because both framings feel impossible: saying nothing (and waiting for the crisis to decide) or taking over (and watching a parent's face close). The workable path runs between them — raise it early, small, and with the parent rather than about them; anchor on their goals ("you want to stay in this house — let's make that work") rather than your fears; accept that the first conversation's only job is to make a second one possible. This skill prepares one specific talk: the opener, the script's spine, the rehearsal against the resistance you'll actually meet,…
