[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, I'm older and I was the one who asked, "are you mulit-tasking when you talk to her?" loading the dishwasher, fumbling around with anything, distracted by others in your house? If you are distracted, it's annoying. Give her your full attention.[/quote] NP and my widowed mom has become queenly. She expects her adult children to call HER and then she proceeds to scorekeep and become passive aggressive and mention she "hasn't heard from one of us in # exact number days." She wants full attention, too - it annoys her that one sibling calls while walking outdoors. I make sure I'm quiet while unloading the dishwasher. If we are on the phone for longer than a half hour, I have to do something.[/quote]
