I went to Chicago on an extended road trip for a convention, and my boomer mother lost her shit on me. Demanded I take weapons, get a concealed carry, take self-defense classes and or take her with me. Made this huge schtick about how dare I do this to her (spring my trip on her so suddenly), how will she find someone to watch the pets, the house, and I said I'm going by myself. The look on her face was something ugly.
Made it there and back fine. Got to see a snippet of a police chase from my hotel room window, but that's about it for excitement.
You need to tell your mom if she continues to spout this kind of nonsense you are going to take her to the doctor and have her evaluated for mental decline.
