[quote=Anonymous]I stopped having phone calls with my mom altogether for various reasons but A LOT of women in my family and friends that I know speak to their mothers daily. For a lot of them, I think it is more the mother who demands/expects it but in general they all have close relationships regardless. I don't think speaking with her once a week is outrageous but she is clearly comparing your relationship with her to the one your sister has with her. She is putting identical expectations on two different relationships. If you have a good relationship with her, like her and don't find it too difficult to add in another call or two during the week making the effort might go a long way for her. I bet even just extra text messages would go a long way. Is she lonely? bored? But if you find that once a week is really all you want or can handle, I don't think there is anything wrong with that and you shouldn't feel guilty over it. [/quote]
