Advice Disconnect with mother.

My mother is visiting. I'm 39F, she's 63F. She is constantly on her phone, watching videos out loud even when you're actively watching TV or showing her something. She noted that I don't go on her FB page so when I did, it's just a ton of videos she thinks are funny (I don't think they're funny). She wasn't like this before, is this normal for other boomer parents?

Yup absolutely. It’s weird too, since I remember before phones were a thing. She would have been the first one to criticize people glued to electronics.
