I not only have problems with my DGD re eating but with my elderly mother too, she is getting worse. I know this is similar to another thread about older people being rude because they think they are entitled to at their age. However my mother just doesn't stop talking. If we are in a shop and she sees someone she talks non stop, I can see them edging away . She is a bore.
If she rings me to tell me for instance that shes bought a bargain at a shop, she starts off with the whole story of how she got up that day, what she wore, what the weather was, who she sat next to in the bus and then what shops she went in then finally what she bought and the cost of it. Everything becomes a story, She is getting worse and can be quite aggressive too, if I tell her to be quiet she will say that she will soon be quiet for ever and makes me feel guilty. I love just coming home from work and lazing on the sofa relaxing but she will have left messages on the phone to which I must reply. She is not lonely, she belongs to groups/has friends and has a busier social life than me. She is aggressive and tells everyone off for not doing as she has said, I challenged this and she says that if people persist in doing the 'wrong thing' then they must be spoken to. I tell her to mind her own business and she says people like me are no good they allow others to walk over them. Help !!!
