The rule

A person's difficult behavior can come from a change in their role.

The person may not know how to act in their new role. This change can cause feelings of loss or confusion.

When a person acts difficult, it might be because their role has changed. They may feel less important. They might not know what to do in their new situation. This can make them act in ways that are not helpful. Understanding this can help others feel more understanding towards the person.

A parent becomes a grandparent. The parent used to make all family decisions. Now, the parent feels less important. The parent tries to control the new family. A child can explain that the parent is learning a new role. The child can help the parent find new ways to contribute.
