[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My mother used to do this. It's not that they get meaner. It's that they lose their filter and words just blurt out. They don't think before they speak like most of us do, partially because [u]they are out of practice for having to do so in an office/ community environment[/u]. [/quote]This is what I'm seeing in my mother. She's been retired for 20 years and although she worked all her life and raised three kids, it seems like she's forgotten what it's like to work in an office or take care of kids. That and the Facebook. Mostly all she see's of her old friends is their Facebook posts. Old people like to brag. As a community they're all becoming snobs.[/quote]
