Thanks for your reply! I feel like I understand my mother more, because I'm trying to build up her self-esteem, like she did with me growing up. I've gotten her out of the house to a Church League Softball game, which was nice. We're actually doing that again Monday. We live in a very small, redneck town, so it makes it more difficult. Too bad I'm not single or I'd just tell her we can "prowl" together . I'll try mentioning some websites to her, but it may take persuasion. She feels too old for that sort of things. I guess we'll just do what we can and let what happens, happens.
