Is it normal that my mom tells me things much too personal?

I'm 21 years old living in my own condo. I keep in touch with my parents because I want them to know that I won't just abandon them since I'm living away from them. My mother has friends that she both goes out to restaurants with and shopping. I don't know why she feels the need but every other day she tells me how regular she is. "Oh Emma I've been pooping like a baby. Very regular". Don't tell me that. That's gross. I've told her it's gross but she said she's just being herself, but I bet she never tells her friends this or else they would leave her. Is this normal?

    That's weird, in fact seriously weird. Maybe she's enjoying the reaction she gets from you, so you could try just ignoring her bowel movement reports.

    It could be worse, believe me... it could be so much worse.

    My mother was always very TMI, and Rose is right, it could be MUCH worse. Among other things, this seemed to get worse as she got older. By the time she hit 50, she was a total psychotic bitch and I had to cease all contact with her.

        Well, be glad you're just hearing about her bowel movements. Once she starts telling you about "last night my boyfriend..." (Shudders)
