That probably is part of a decent solution. I'll still drop some more typical "NT" jokes/tongue-in-cheek things around my ISFJ mom, which can kind of shock her, but I've been gentle with her about it and helped her "ease into" who I am rather than just hitting her full-force with something she doesn't naturally get.
I had to finally accept the issues between my mom and me. For many years, I was really disappointed and upset about our relationship because I really wanted a mom who "understood" me and I could actually have meaningful conversations with (where "meaningful" is what I personally considered meaningful, more typical NTP concerns). I also felt like I had invested a lot more in trying to "enter her turf" than she had in entering mine.
Eventually I came to realize and accept that that was just reality. I'm a type of person who can more easily "get" people who are not like me, where she just has a hard time understanding other frameworks... so like it or not, it was my job to take the steps to bond here, and appreciate her for who she was because she would never be what I wanted completely, just as I am sure she wishes I were more like her in some ways. But I can tell she still loves me.
So I talk to her on the phone once a week, occasionally meet for lunch, and I invest in discussions of the family and relationships when I was there, and I give her an overview of what I'm focused on in life. I put out general bits and pieces of my world that she might be able to engage (big picture stuff) and at least to be fair to myself; and meanwhile I keep her informed of relevant details, and so she feels like we have a relationship. And, once I changed my definition of relationship, I can say that we have a relationship as well; it's just that for me, I had to accept that whatever other needs I had in my life, she would not be able to meet. I don't bother to NEVER touch on them, I feel as part of the relationship I need to give her the option to engage if she wants, but if she can't, I can't expect it from her.
I'm fortunate enough not to live with her and thus deal with it 24/7. She's really happy with scheduled, consistent communication even if it's not for a long period of time. That helps her feel like we have something established. She's still my mom, and she invested a lot in me when I was growing up even if it didn't meet some of my needs, and I want to honor that and learn from it.
