I don’t think it’s wrong to talk to one’s parents about aches and other things. That part I think is normal and not bothersome. That just routine conversation. I think of close relationship with parents is a good thing actually. I think it’s healthy but within limits. My brother and I were close with our mom but she didn’t excessively meddle in our relationships. Of course no one can love anyone like their mother does. That just a given, it’s a different kind of love. But if someone is dependent on their parents in adulthood it’s not healthy imho

Some other examples of his mom are weird though like driving him to a date. Unless he doesn’t drive, then it’s ok
Thanks for this!
