Thanks Everyone,

You are all right, and make very good points.

I just need to stop talking to her about these things that mean so much to me. I did for awhile-actually I stopped talking to her for awhile altogether. But, as she and my dad have gotten older, I felt guilty for not seeing them more often.

I just have to realize that I can see them, but I don't have to share everything with them.

Many thanks all!
