[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP the texts that you’ve specifically mentioned just don’t seem that bad to me, not enough to get worked up over. I’m sure all of us would be at least slightly hurt by texts about us if we snooped and read them. It doesn’t mean you don’t love someone. Your mom thinks you downplay her dementia fears about your dad and is looking for support from her son after your response. Big deal. Unless there’s more hurtful exchanges in there it feels to me like you are overreacting. And it’s REALLY inappropriate to snoop like this in the first place.[/quote]

I’m less concerned with the snooping but other than that, this PP hits the nail on the head. The example you have is truly not that big of a deal. But it is a big deal for you to dismiss your mom. She spends way more time with your dad than a 15-minute visit with a doctor. The medical community can’t do anything about dementia, but if it’s coming, it’s best to be prepared and dismissing your mom’s concerns isn’t helpful. [/quote]
