[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I also wonder why people say selfishness is a sign of aging. My grandma was always kind and wise and stayed until the end (the end was 95+), so was my dad (esp emotionally strong part, obviously physically one can get weak). My mom on the other hand... nope, selfish and always has been. Not sure she's more selfish. However I tolerate it much less as I have by now figured out the manipulations. I wonder if people simply didn't realize their moms were selfish before or couldn't admit to themselves? [/quote] I think they are confusing selfish with a person deciding to put themselves first now that they have grown children. Women are taught to think of others first and at some point -some earlier some later- they realize no one is putting them first and now is the time. [/quote]
