[quote=Anonymous]This is very common and not unhealthy unless it creates problems. She is remembering happy times. Yes she has glossed over or forgotten some of the less happy things, but overall she is remembering when she was younger and had her family around her. It's easy to understand why she might be nostalgic for that, and fine so long as she doesn't get stuck there. Here's a more extreme example: My mom was furious that DH and I sold the home where we'd lived when our DD was born -- could not imagine letting go of the place where DD took her first steps. Offered to buy it from us so we could keep it as a rental (we declined). [/quote]
