[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 399985, member: 84"] Well my girls and I are very close, I talk to them both almost every day either by phone, chat, or in person. Travis would call from college occasionally to visit a bit. It wasn't frequent by any means, more of like when the mood suited him or he maybe was missing us. Usually he included that he missed my cooking. lol I know Nichole's boyfriend will stop in to see his parents if he's in town, but honestly unless he needs something ( like a sitter for aubrey) I don't think he ever calls home. If he does it's rare. sister in law goes eats dinner at his mom's house each sunday. Now this is a bit backward.........he doesn't call his mom. She calls [B]him[/B] when she wants/needs something. lol It's not that he doesn't like his parents, but his mom always tends to want stuff or him to do things.....so he tends to avoid her except for the sunday dinners. I think he sees/talks to me more than he does her. It's nice to have your kids touch base with you at least on some sort of reg basis. Females tend to do this more than males do. Maybe he's trying to find his own independence separate from you at the moment. I know when I was going through that process I can't recall calling or seeing my mom unless she did the calling/coming to visit. It didn't last but a few months for me. Doesn't hurt for you to touch base with him too, for that matter. Hugs [/QUOTE]
