As housing prices rise and caregiving needs evolve, many families are turning to multi-generational or “sandwich” living — where two or more grown-up generations, often including grandparents and grandchildren, share a solo household. This way of living can offer financial relief, emotional support, and a deeper perception of connection; however, for it to work well, thoughtful planning is vital. Here’s how to arrange your place to accommodate multiple generations while preserving privacy, comfort, and harmony.

Before rearranging furniture or knocking down walls, start by identifying who will be living in the home and what their needs may be. Having these conversations initial helps avoid misunderstandings and ensures the space supports each person’s lifestyle.

Create a list of priorities:

• Privacy: Who will depend on private bedrooms, entrances, or bathrooms? Will teenagers want more privacy than younger children? Do elder children need work-from-home spaces? 
• Accessibility: Are there physical limitations that will require modifications? Do elderly membe

  There are many reasons to neglect the late, great Roger Ebert, but one of my favourite things he ever did was introduce me to the plan of “a shot at a time” movie watching session. He’d do this at festivals and universities, pausing films they watched repeatedly to discuss certain images and points, learning whole novel ways to consider the art of film: “Perhaps it sounds grueling, but in fact it can be exciting and almost hypnotic.”

  In an age where movies are just another distraction, it can be hard to point on them. You’re tweeting, Googling and hunting for memes on your phone while you survey with one eye on your laptop. (I’m as guilty of anyone at doing this sometimes.)

  Some films deserve more. Take Blow-Up, Michelangelo Antonioni’s pop-art masterpiece about an arrogant, disillusioned swinging London fashion photographer (David Hemmings) who accidentally discovers a murder. Enigmatic, beautiful and mesmerising, it’s one of my top 20 films of all time, and I got to see it on the big screen the other night for the first hour in years, where Antonioni&#;s astounding control

  Older LGBTQ+ adults share their stories of coming out after 50

  From a year-old man finding the courage to come out to a former Baptist preacher revealing his authentic individuality at 53, journalist Charles M. Blow uncovered the touching stories of everyday Americans who are embracing their true selves later in life.

  Bestselling author and former New York Times columnist Blow, who came out as bisexual at 40, made this verdict after he became a public figure. He revealed his sexual orientation in his memoir "Fire Secure Up in my Bones," which is about his life growing up in Louisiana.

  "Late to the Party: Coming Out Later in Life," airing Friday, June 6, at 8 p.m. ET on ABC and streaming the next evening on Hulu, follows Burst as he explores the experiences of older adults who have come out as LGBTQ+ later in life.

  At book signings, people thanked him for his courage and told him they also came out in their 50s or older. Blow realized that it's a phenomenon that needed to be explored and discussed more to help reduce stigma and shame.
