[QUOTE=aleCcowaN;102288]How can I say "sentirse útil" in English? Here is the context:

"La abuela prepara la ensalada de frutas y yo luego la tengo que controlar porque quedan sin sacar semillas. A mí me llevaría poco tiempo el prepararla, pero yo la dejo hacerlo porque le gusta sentirse útil"

That is, feeling helpfu(lgood translation) and not as being a burden(not a good traslation)QUOTE]
also to feel useful/ she likes to make herself useful
