[quote=Anonymous]She is small-town minded. You can't fix that. Having family "far away" is relative. Some view a few hours as a hardship, other view a different continent to be a hardship. Encourage her to consider moving closer to one of you if she's willing to work to make the change happen (and be happy about it) Older people complain. Also realize that she gets to share and vent re: her frustrations/dreams/disappointments. Don't take them oh-so-seriously always. She's sharing her feelings, what she thinks about. That's what relationships are for. They are more intense since she is older, and she is your mom and you feel responsible.[/quote]
