[quote=Anonymous]My mom's narcissism and intense self focus has gotten worse. She's in her 80s and a widow and so people outside of the family give her a pass and fall for the helpless, little old lady narrative. But as her DD, I can only take so much. She score keeps among her children; who has most recently called, visited, helped her and the more extraordinary act of service, the better. Then she will call and tell me how my brother drove over to her house at sunrise, on the way to work, to fix something in her house and how she never sees me. She has high expectations. Doesn't drive, but wants to be driven everywhere and taken on vacations or at least invited along. I've posted on dcum before how I've flown and driven w my mom and she will not read, knit or otherwise occupy herself. Nope. She just talks, incessantly, about herself. [/quote]
