I’m guessing she’s addicted because she found a lot of people she knew back in the day. I mean, she’s 41 years old so maybe she found college, high school, junior high, or even old elementary school friends. That’s a LOT of history. Maybe she’s wondering how everyone turned out — looking at their pictures, looking at their families, what kind of jobs they do, etc. Probably being nosy.

I personally don’t see how a mother can be addicted to the games. A teenage boy I’d understand, but a mom? I’m thinking it’s more into finding old people and “whatever happened to so-and-so.” Maybe she’s doing a lot of reminiscing too. You should ask to spend some time with her. Maybe you guys could go eat out or catch a movie? Spend some quality time together. Maybe ask your sisters and dad to join in too. I think it’s so sweet you’re concerned.
