[quote=Anonymous]This is a very difficult. I am a senior and I see it happening all around me. People don’t see themselves as getting old. Their biggest fear is loosing independence. I hope I listen to my kids when my time comes but my biggest fear is I will be forgotten. Warehoused! The point is….assure you Mom that you, her grandkids and family support her. Use humor to deal with what she is adjusting to. I think your guilt comes from…..she did all this for you and you know it. Life goes like this….Twice a child, once an adult. You were a child and she was the adult….now it’s time to flip that around. Show her that she raised good kids. She is going through a phase like you did when you were teething, or a teenager, you get it. Even if you have to fake caring. You kids are watching and guess what happens in the blink of an eye?
