Why Is Grandma Naked?

Award-winning journalist and attorney Ellen Pober Rittberg’s new humorous self-help book, Why Is Grandma Naked? Caring for Your Aging Parent published in early 2021.

An award-winning journalist and published author, her essays and features have appeared in the NY Times, HuffPost, Reader’s Digest, Newsday, and large online platforms.

In this humorous self-help book, Ellen serves as a guide and cheerleader to family members who undertake to care for their elderly parents. Sharing the stresses and satisfactions when caring for her aging mother, Rittberg uses comical chapter headings such as:

  • • Be The Alpha Dog
  • • Boundaries? Huh? Your Aging Parent Has None
  • • Your Parent May Develop Sticky Fingers
  • • JEOPARDY! (why elderly parents need their favorite show even when they can't answer any of the questions)
