[quote=Anonymous]I think this is more about a lack of respect. My mother will ask innocuous questions on the local Facebook group like "Does anywhere around here sell fresh deli sandwiches" and get absolutely mean-spirited responses "It's called Google, Grandma" which bring her to tears. She says "Can't they tell I'm an old lady? People used to be nice to old ladies." I do feel for her. In this situation she would have expected the mother to make eye contact with her and maybe whisper an apology, but being ignored would bother her as well.[/quote]
