Perhaps I should clarify.
My mom likes knitting AND my mom sells knitted stuff for extra money and is always complaining about never having enough time to make goods so I got her something to help her make product faster.
My mom mainly just likes to complain about shit instead of solving the problem though, so it was kind of on me for expecting her to actually want a solution instead of her just wanting to bitch about something.
>I want to learn how to air brush to make my hobby crafts nicer
*Buy her an air brush and paints*
She sells the airbrush after it never even being opened for over two years for $20 including the compressor.
>I want an instant pot. It would make cooking so much more convenient
*Buy her an instant pot*
She never took it out of the box and gave it to a friend a year later for a birthday gift because "seems too complex".

She's the same woman who wants an electric car to save on gas but won't get one because she is worried about installing a charging outlet outside and it would be "a waste of money if I move" despite living in the same house for forty years.
Love her death but she is outright retarded about things. For example, she complains "I never get to see you." when I am not allowed to drive (uncontrollable seizures) and she can. I live less than 3 miles from her place and am home 95% of the time. She has visited my place ONCE in five years and expects me to just walk to her place a couple of times a week to say "Hi" but would never drive to see me because "it's a hassle". I am firmly convinced if I stopped walking to her place she would never see me again until her dying day but would bitch about she never sees me.
