In this latest episode of our family conflicts series, we tackle one of the most common yet painful dynamics in dementia caregiving: sibling resentment. "Where were you when I needed help?" It's a question that echoes in countless families when one person shoulders the burden alone. Through Emily and Brian's story—where a well-meaning Christmas suggestion becomes the breaking point—host Dawn Platt reveals why vague offers to help actually hurt more than they help. Learn how to define what real support looks like, start the difficult conversations your family needs to have, and discover practical strategies for sharing caregiving responsibilities without losing your relationships. Sometimes the hardest conversation isn't with the person who has dementia—it's with the family member who thinks good intentions are enough.
