It sounds like she may be suffering from some sort of depression. Maybe you could encourage her to seek some outside help. It's not good when someone sits on the computer all day and does nothing else, especially as she has children. Maybe she has post natal depression, which seems to very common these days. She needs to look deep within herself to find out what her problem is. Maybe she lacks self confidence due to her relationship breakup with her children's father - maybe her ex has moved on and she hasn't and because she hasn't, she's having trouble dealing with her emotions. When people are feeling down and depressed, the last thing they really want to do is go out - it's just too hard, so sometimes it makes them feel better to complain about it.

You can't make anyone do anything. She will do it one day if that's what she wants. She is probably in a different phase of her life one day. She with either do this for all her life (nothing you can do about it) or one day she will wake up and say I want to do something different.

It's not your problem. Learn this now while you're young - people will act as they please regardless of what they say. She'll change only when she truly wants to.
