[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]She doesn’t want me doing it bc she says I see it as a chore. Well, yes, but when she fell and broke her shoulder, I helped her with her showers for over two months. [/quote] Well, it is a chore. Nobody actually enjoys helping adults bathe, but is of often a necessary part of elder care. Does she want you to show enjoyment?[/quote] Do not allow her to start dictating. Yes it sucks to need help, but it is a chore and she just has to accept it. you need to set your foot down. first it's going to be this, then it's going to be demanding all sorts of other things because you aren't fawning over her at all times. Then if you do try and put on a smile, you'll get blamed for being insincere. As long as you aren't rude, she either accepts the help she gets or she doesn't get it. This can also drive a wedge between you and your own daughter.[/quote]
