Do people get more selfish as they get older?

Asked by Adirondackwannabe (36713points) March 30th, 2013

My mother is hosting Easter dinner tomorrow. My niece asked if her boyfriends parents could come to dinner, as they’ll be alone if he comes with her. My mother was annoyed but said yes. Why wouldn’t she accept other members into the family, since my niece and her guy are fairly serious and I sense wedding bells in the future. My mother also cuts my stepsister out of family functions. She just wants her biological family around her. Why is that?
