Mom, you know that Andrea and I sometimes worry about you.
Really? Why would you worry about me? I'm just fine.
You're almost 70 years old, Mom! Don't you think it would be better for you if you moved in with us?
No way! I like my apartment, and I like to be independent.
Do you ever get lonely living alone?
Not at all. I see you and your family twice a week, and I enjoy seeing my own friends. I'm too busy to feel lonely!
