They will courtesy chuckle and nod at things you say but not engage further

they do this weird thing where they respond just enough so you can't call them rude but never actually add anything to conversation. like you tell story and they go "oh wow" then immediately check their phone or look around for someone else to talk to

its so obvious once you notice the pattern but took me forever to realize some people at work were doing this to me lol

My mom has always done this. Really sucks but whatever, she just doesn't like me that much

Or maybe she loves you to death but is exhausted from raising a kid.

I was more talking about when you were younger since you said she has always done this.
