Caregivers Asked

Elderly Aunt living in another state phones almost every day and tells offensive and racist jokes. I don't want to hear it anymore. Advice?
Why does everyone else get the joy and laughter from mom, but my sister and I get the whining and can barely talk?
Help dealing with family. Is it wrong that I feel that her own daughter should be stepping up to help her mother?

I do not know what you can do about this. My suggestion, detach, and be glad she is in assisted living and not living with you. Sorry if this sounds cold, but it is something YOU cannot control.
