[quote=Anonymous]It may be an attention thing. The more help she requires the more attention she gets. She's not more self sufficient because there is nothing in it for her to be more self sufficient. As long as she can get others to do for her, she will keep on demanding that kind of attention. There is a chance that when she gets around other 80/90 year old women who are doing basic things for themselves and she becomes friends with those ladies, Mom will suddenly want to be competent like her friends are. I would step back and see how things go. [/quote]
