30 and 40 year old men - how often do you call your mothers?

My mid-50s spouse is the same -- he calls his parents every Sunday and on their birthdays, anniversary, and major holidays.

Normally 1x/month

Right now 1x/week because she needs me to drive her to doctor's appointments and there are about 8.

45. On holidays, or every 4-6 weeks.

Once a week minimum, sometimes twice a week.

My 46 year old husband calls his mom every Sunday at 9am, which is much more often than I call my parents.

There is a family text string with communication daily. He probably talks to his mother on the phone every week, maybe more maybe less. But it's not scheduled. They are local, so we see them here or there too.

He definitely talks to his parents a lot. Sometimes it feels like a demand, like he HAS to answer or they send him aggressive texts asking what he's doing. My parents aren't like that, and there's occasional times we go awhile without speaking. But overall I have a better relationship with my parents because I feel they respect me and trust me. His parents act like it's high treason if he ignores a call, so he'll do rude things like answer their call in the middle of dinner.

My DH almost never calls his mom. She calls us once a week. He texts her every day or two.
