[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Maybe we should trade parents. My mom is mad at me because I actually won't let her get me anything. I'm self sufficient enough to buy all the things I need so no need to have her buy something I don't. Maybe take a lesson in humility op.[/quote]

Old age slowly wears us down, it saps our strength, strains our mind, and dulls our senses. It is painful to feel oneself slip away, to watch people's eyes gloss over you on the street, because you don't matter any more, or have in fact become a burden. We all have a craving to be needed and liked. While we can rationalize being cast aside by strangers, but it is torture to become irrelevant to family.

So regardless of whether you can provide for yourself, you should convey to your mom that she is needed and appreciated. If that means you let her buy you a gift, big or small, that's what you need to do.[/quote]

Well said!  I would invite them to join you for dinner sometime in December to be together and celebrate the season and not think twice about gift-giving.[/quote]
