I have to explain current events to my mom every day, and the next day, she has no idea what I'm talking about.

Sometimes we'll watch the news, and I'll comment on a story, and she won't know what I'm talking about, and I'll say "We just sat here and watched that news story!" And she'll say "Oh, I wasn't really watching that."

I'm honestly starting to worry about her.

A lot of the boomers are irreparably broken. It took me far too long to realize this and I made excuses for my parents for far too long.

Ignorance is a choice and has been for most of their life.
