Patience with your parents goes a long way. We dont know how long we'll have them.
My dad's the same way. He's a writer though so I asked him to write out some of his favorite stories so that I have a record of them after he's gone. Since then it's been much more new material and he has written out some of his past and is working to do more. It'll be great to have when I can no longer have 2-3 hour chats with him.
