I'm not surprised you feel like crying to be honest.
I understand the need to justify your emotions, but it really won't do you any good. Statistics won't determine the future, no one can say exactly what will happen. Maybe the unknown is scary, but I guess that shows how we've got to make the most out of every moment.
That's probably your mum's way of dealing with this; make it normal, drill it into her own mind until she simply accepts it. Could you talk to her and say it upsets you? Or say you'd rather enjoy the present than talk too much about the future?
Have a good day tomorrow, friends and kids are great for cheeriness :)
