[quote=Anonymous]It sounds like you're not really in the loop. You went out of your way to mention twice that she's dominant in relationships, and it sounded pretty critical. Maybe she tunes you out because she senses that you have a lot of negativity towards her. Many of us have dealt with imperfect elders who are very independent and don't make the decisions we wish they did. Competent adults are allowed to make choices we don't like. Maybe she's terminal and is just out of effs to give. Instead of trying to change her, I would focus on trying to spend more time with her, listening to her, thinking about questions I would want to ask. [/quote]
