[QUOTE="DDD, post: 400141, member: 35"] I always just asked. Do you want to call home to check in with us or are you comfortable with us contacting you on a regular basis? Chances are you'll get an honest answer if you have a relationship going. Our adult children call us when they want to and we're always glad to hear from them. Some only call a couple of times a year and a couple call every week. As they mature husband and I think the ball should be in their court. on the other hand, our 23 year old lives in town. It is really rare for him not to come by almost daily or call to check in..particularly when he is inebriated he is a "talker" who will talk all night if he reaches me after he is safely home. Each of them is different and only you can lovingly inquire about what their thoughts are at the time. Chances are it will vary year to year. DDD [/QUOTE]
