You are assuming they're not doing it deliberately.

A lot of old people have figured out that you can get other people do do stuff for you by pretending you don't understand it yourself.

I genuinely do not think they are doing it deliberately, at least not at any conscious level. I guess I don't know their inner psyche but I genuinely think that when they ask for help it's because they feel like they need help.
