Relationships “I don’t really like my mother, but she keeps in touch” – Psychologist tells how to handle the situation in style

The Person column deals with readers’ interpersonal issues. This time, the reader wonders what to do when a lonely loved one seems to get in touch too often.

HS reader write:

How to support a retired mother who is lonely? My mother is retired and has very few friends. Korona seems to have taken those little connections from her.

I am distressed when he keeps in touch and asks for the next appointment. We are a little distant between us because my mother intervened too much in our family’s infancy and we weren’t very close before the kids. Actually, I don’t like my mother very much. The children don’t really care about his company either.
