She has a far different way of looking at things, and when I try to explain them, she keeps on asking questions that don't lead to understanding. She isn't stupid, but at 88 she doesn't adapt well. That tends to be a fact of life; it's becomes harder to deal with things that are outside the framework with which you've been doing just fine in for the last 60-70 years when 70 or 80 years have passed. BTW, welcome to Brin-L. I have been the least liberal loud person on the group, and it is nice to see someone who jumps in with both feet who appears to be to the right of me. Unfortunately, I'm way behind because my portable started crashing every 4 minutes, so I had to rebuild it from the core while I was trying to satisfy 3 clients and prepare for a trip to help out family.....just as a hurricane may be bearing down on my house...sigh.
