[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My mother is similar. Lots of oversharing. She is equally dramatic when I am sick. If she hears over the phone that I have a cough, it's all "Aare you OKAY? Can you go to a doctor? Do you know how to get to the nearest hospital? Can you get some popsicles or soup?!" I just want to once respond "Settle down bitch. I just need a fucking sip of water." She works herself up into a tizzy thanks to never having worked through her issues with her own mother dying when my mom was a small child. So when my mom has bronchitis or a cold or whatever I just say "Oh, sorry to hear you're sick; feel better soon." And then THAT'S IT. The grandchildren have nothing to do with this.
