My mother got one tonight. She told me to help her with the TV. I was busy with the dishes and had a lot on my plate, so I turned off the cable thing and told her to turn it on a minute later. She storms outside soon enough bitching at me about how unhelpful/unfriendly I am. She says that she does things for me all the time and doesn't understand why I can't just help her with something she's so weak at. Seriously lady? I told you to press the power button and you're complaining that I didn't press it for you? FFS I have arguments with her like this all the time. She just has no desire for self-improvement and that really, really pisses me off. Her belief system just states that everyone should be helpful to each other and because she has been helpful to me, I should be helpful to her. Anything else is rude and selfish. Problem is that she hides behind this and takes everything personally whenever we think she should learn something herself. This is one chronic Te bitchslap that causes constant conflict in our family.
