Really, you just gave us the dialogue of your conversation? You really have nothing else to do, hmm?

She's 81. Most old people exist in a tiny world, and don't care about anything that's not directly impacting them. Going forward you have to understand that. If she's 81, you should be old enough yourself to know this already!

You and I must know very different 81 y.os. Even the 81 y.os. I know in less ambulatory circumstances are very concerned about their community, state, and the nation as well as their immediate lives. [/quote]

OP here. My mom and the other 80-somethings I know are exhausting because they’re really focused on their little worlds at the same time that they have the time and bandwidth to follow the minute details of local, National and foreign affairs. Our conversation today gave equal weight to her thoughts on neighbor’s new fence, the fact that the kid from the cul-de-sac is now the school superintendent, and the shutdown.[/quote]
