I told my mother because my pdoc is where she lives and my car isn't working right now so I need her to pick me up and take me there. Also my appointment is the same day as something else we had planned.

I'm not expecting her to read my mind, I am expecting her to put in more effort. She says to me I don't understand so I try to explain things to her and she says ok I still don't understand so I try to explain it a different way, and still she says I don't understand and I say well why don't you read a book on the subject or talk to a professional about it, but she doesn't. There is only so much I can do to try to help her understand.
