My mom is in her late 70's and in reasonably good health, at least physically. Some times I can have a normal conversation with her but usually she flips the conversation around, totally changes the subject and won't even listen to what I'm trying to talk about or explain to her. I often have to just hang up the phone. She's never really been supportive of ventures I've under taken and it seems like she just wants to argue without even listening to what I'm saying. My girlfriend notices too that my mom goes off on tangents. I'd like to be able to have normal conversations but I'm almost afraid to want to try. It's very upsetting. Has anyone else gone through something similar? It's not good to be so upset and have to hang up on your own mom. Of course she doesn't see the problem. I don't know what to do. Thanks for understanding. Dave
My mom has been gone now for about 6 years. She was 88 when she passed away. Many times I talked to her on the phone or in person and would just let her talk. She would tell me things that were of no interest such as what was going on in one of her friends lives or what happened years ago. I think this is part of the aging process and one must deal with it carefully to prevent misunderstanding and hurt feelings. Many times I was bored out of my mind but Now I wish I could listen to her just one more time.
