My Mom is the black sheep of her family. My Dad is not her dream man (now they're divorced after 18 years). She is financially & emotionally unstable & is not living the life she's always wished for. Although I am married, I try to see her & comfort her as best as I can. I love her very much & feel very sorry for her, but I really don't know how to help her anymore. She is a kind woman but we have different values & perspectives in life so it's been very difficult to talk to her. She breaks down a lot when things aren't perfect and is more of a people-pleaser who must strive for a good reputation. Since I am not the same, she criticizes me. How do I get to her that everything doesn't have to be perfect, she doesn't need such fame for life to be exciting, tons of $$$, etc.?
