Actually, the sentence is perfect. Probably, it might be a mistake at the exam.

And what is the trick?

The "trick" is that there is no word that fits to make the sentence complete. So you look for something that does not exist.

Clive · Answer

Which ones did you already find?

Johnnie Walker · Answer

Adverbs, dear friend, adverbs.

For example, think "time".

My mother likes being responsible lately for people's lives.

My mother likes being responsible daily for people's lives.

My mother likes being responsible recently for people's lives.

Or, as in my case...

My mother likes being responsible unapologetically for people's lives.

As a student of English language for quite sometime now, I think the space needs to be filled out with any suitable noun such as "person" "individual" "citizen" etc. Any other suggestions please ?
