[quote=Anonymous]So, you want her to feel more stressed and less blissed? What exactly do you want her to do that would make you feel more understood? Hug you? Complain about the cost of apples? Listen quietly while you vent? Something else? What have you done to make her feel more understood by you? Her "understanding" about "what it takes to hack it today" seems to have taken the form of extremely generous gifts. I'm hoping, OP, that you're not as cruel as this sounds, and the issue is something like: "She calls every evening at 7 -- when we have homework time with a kid who needs extra help." Otherwise, complaining about how her inability to understand how "imperative it is....to contribute to a 401K" when she GIVES you the equivalent of more than the annual salary of a minimum wage worker EVERY YEAR is kinda rich OP.
