My mother acts the very same way. So ungrateful. It’s a control mechanism. Try to not feed into it and set boundaries. She is repsonsible to make the best of what she has left in life. If she makes mush out of everything given to her by complaining and nit picking, then that’s for her to deal with. No one likes a negative Nellie all the time. I don’t have a magic answer to make her not be negative, but she will have to reap what she sews. As far as y’all having to be around her, just meet her basic needs, and distance yourselves. If at all possible to hire some help are for her. The less time you have you spend with her the better. If she’s like my mother, I don’t see her changing. You have to take care of yourselves. As long as her needs are met, let her sit in her puddle of negativity. You being drug in to the puddle too does no one any good.
