2:34 am
don't ever go on the attack about it. bring it up in a way where you're concerned. >> like what? >> like how? >> i know you're at work all day long, i'm home and i'm hearing your dog barking. i'm a little worried, is the dog okay? you come from a place of concern. >> the dog is fine. >> the dog's fine, thank you. thanks for asking. thank you for your concern. >> and your point is? >> and you will deal with that. again, because people do treat the dogs like kids. if that happens, i would say, you know what, i'm working from home and it is really disturbing to me when i'm trying to get work done. >> okay. what if they don't care? >> then the law will very often be on your side. there are local ordinances, there are animal safety agencies that you can approach about it. >> the government. >> the same vain, from k., catherine, has a question about neighbors cleaning up after their pets. i have a problem with my neighbor letting the dog pee on my grass. i have landscapers taking care of the lawn and it bothers me she lets her dog go on the lawn.
2:35 am
>> it can ruin grass. >> you get the awful brown spots. so there are a couple of things you can do here. the aspca has a great page where you could go on the website that talks about training your animal to go in a certain area. it takes a couple of weeks but it is possible. people say the dog does his own thing, i can't control it, you can with a little bit of effort. if you dilute that urine, urine we're really specifically focusing on, dilute it with a bucket of water. >> we prefer the word pee please. if you don't mind. >> a nicer way of saying it. let's go with that. >> yes, okay. >> if the walker brings a bucket of water, he or she can dilute it at the moment or spray it down after the fact. >> how do you tell your neighbor you can hear the intimate moments -- oh, my god -- and would like them to keep it down? should i also mention that my neighbor happens to be my landlord? >> oh, forget it. you can't win. >> that's a tricky one. >> keep them happy.
2:36 am
>> in new york city particularly this is an issue where we live in close quarters. i'm in a brown stone, sometimes i hear things don't want to hear. you don't want in your head. there is a very passive thing you can do, earplugs, noise machines, to control the noise environment in your own space. somebody might not know. so i would address it with them in a polite way. not in that moment. don't get out the broom handle and star tapping. aggressive behavior doesn't work. >> we have time for one more? one more. how do you handle your upstairs neighbor. a mom and daughter moved in and they haven't had a moment of peace since. it is loud up there, vibrating footsteps, et cetera. same kind of thing. >> there are ordinances that talk about rug coverage. especially in big cities. make the landlord be the bad guy. you try to do the right thing and hasn't worked, go to the authorities and in this case, the landlord. >> thank you. except for the use of urine, you did very, very well. thank you so much.

2:39 am
2:40 am
more daylight and warmer weather give us time to stay out a little longer and do the stuff we love. also longer days can wreak havoc on our nighttime sleep cycle. >> here with tips on how to get your body clock back on track is robert ekman. >> robert is here. >> nice to see you guys again. >> we get less sleep as the summer rolls in. >> we stay up later for whatever reason, maybe because barbecuing out late at night, maybe we decided we're going to maybe
2:41 am
exercise late into the night. but with that extra daylight comes some consequences associated with that, correct? >> yeah. not getting enough sleep really it does more than tire you out. it can really have physical problems because of it, can't you? >> we see a lot less ability to deal with stress. we see a lot -- we're more explosive. we can't concentrate as well. our relationships start changing when we don't sleep very well. physically things happen as well. we put ourselves at high risk of infection because our immune system starts to go down. >> you tend to fall and such. >> hurt your knee. >> hurt your knee. >> and neck. >> everything. >> maybe balance issues is one of them. we can also increase in risk of type 2 diabetes, obesity, increase risk of cancers for some people that start having sleeping problems. sleep is important. we're learning a lot about it now. >> would you encourage people to use over the counter type medications or get their doctor to give them an ambien or melatonin.
2:42 am
>> it is short-term use. it is two to four weeks. get over what is causing the sleep disruption but find out what is causing. >> what if it's your husband? >> maybe a break for a little bit. maybe that would work. but what we need to do is maybe take a -- that short-term. but when it comes to melatonin, not a lot of research out there about it. consult your physician before you take anything over the counter like that. >> but if your choice is you're not sleeping or take the sleep aid, you say it is better to get some kind of sleep with the sleep aid than try to tough it out. >> exactly. short-term. there are some processing you can go through for insomnia. you can learn what is causing the sleep disruption, behavior, environment, sleep equipment. >> how much sleep do we need? for kids and grown-ups. >> for us, it is seven to eight hours. a lot of people think i can get by on six. probably not. about .01% can get by with six or less.
2:43 am
for adults, kids should get -- should get 9, 10 hours. kids on average are getting 7 hours a sleep, and there's consequences at school, lower gpa scores, lower a.c.t. scores. >> they're getting four or five hours of homework a night too. >> what are you supposed to do to get everyone in bed early? >> you got to get the whole house involved in this. you can't have one partner who wants to go to sleep at 2:00 in the morning and you're trying to get to bed at 10:00. involve the whole house associated with that. get everyone to opt in. in the summertime, you may decide to change the kids' bed time from 9:00 to 10:00. it is about quantity of sleep. allow them to get the extra at night and allow them to sleep in in the morning with that. the whole house should to that. >> and blackout shades. >> thank god for those. >> we would never be able to make it. >> a lot of people don't have that. a simple eye shade works if you
2:44 am
can't use blackout shades, eye shades, takes two weeks to get used to them because it is weird, you wake up and it is dark and you think i didn't know it would be like this. two weeks and it really works well. >> thank you so much. >> is it time to try and take away their keys? >> how to have the tough must have talks with your aging parents. we really wanted to take a relaxing trip to florida.
2:45 am
2:46 am
you know? just to unwind. but we can only afford one trip this year, and his high school reunion is coming up in seattle. everyone's going. then we heard about hotwire... and realized we could actually afford to take both trips. [woman] see, when really nice hotels have unsold rooms, they use hotwire to fill them. so we got our 4-star hotels for half price. i should have been voted "most likely to travel." ♪ h-o-t-w-i-r-e ♪ hotwire.com save big on car rentals too, from $11.95 a day. jim's hair is perfect. so's his serve, and his mandarin [speaking mandarin] xieúxieú, hou chiú but like up to 90% of americans, jim falls short in

according to visiting angels, one of the largest in home senior care companies in the nation, adult children would rather talk to their parents about sex than about taking away their car keys. >> here to help you start those tough must have talks with aging parents are r.g. alan, director of clinical training at drexel university. and amy guyer. >> love her too, even though i just met her. >> thank you. >> these conversations are always hard to start. because, look, first of all,
2:49 am
they are your parents. okay. and the role reversal thing can get very strange. >> it can be. we don't want to deal with these, i call courageous conversations or the pink elephant in the room. there is the obvious thing we have been thinking about for a long time. nobody wants to talk about it. it gets a little weird. >> they become very defensive. it is their independence you're talking about. >> the key thing is, you say, your parents are always going to be your parents. so don't try to put yourself in a position i'm parenting my parent. you're supporting your parents. you're helping them. these are the conversations you need to have be able to do that. >> you talk about the car keys. that is, like, a lifeline, okay. if you are a lot of older people are -- they need to get to the store, do things. if that's not there, what are they going to do? what is the right way to have the conversation and when should you have it. >> we were talking earlier and i was saying, got to be very poised and strategic about how you do it. and be empowering versus disempowering. give options. doesn't have to happen overnight.
2:50 am
if you have multiple options, you know how we do with kids, think about it, you told your kids you wanted to go to bed, 9:05 or 9:00. choose. they still choose but you get the same result. so for the keys, say, why don't we start with us driving you to the church or the grocery store what have you and then move to where they're doing it less. it is a gradual process. >> it is important to have the conversations early and often. if you can have a plan ahead of time what is going to happen when you can't drive anymore and how do we get you driving as long as you can? maybe they need to update their driving skills. maybe not stop altogether. aarp has a driving program. maybe self-regulate, not drive at night for a while and gradually decrease. >> what i say to my mom, i said, mom, it is one thing for you to get behind the wheel of a car
2:51 am
and kill yourself, because you've been in an accident. but you would never be able to live with yourself ever again if because you couldn't -- you hurt somebody else, some innocent person. she said, oh, no, i would never want that to happen. i said, ma -- >> and sometimes i think kids overworry. there is a time to ask for them. there is a time where i think as kids we think we're overworrying about our parents and maybe we should give them a break. >> they have been adults for a longer period of time than we have, so helping them to hold on to the integrity of the adulthood and having conversations with love and consideration and empathy and respect. >> did you ever have that conversation. >> i did. in terms of going up and down the steps. i said, i know you're having a difficult time. what if we start out with an additional railing. that would be a help to you getting up -- thought we can do that.
2:52 am
>> it is gradual. >> they don't want to give into it. i'm there now too. >> i had that conversation with my dad and we had him talk with a doctor. sometimes having the right person in the conversation makes all the difference. >> happy mother's day. get ready to cook with us. >> chef ryan scott is here with his mom. first, this is "today" on nbc.
