[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op here. It is possible they just don’t like talking in the phone. It’s also possible that they just want the time with that parent preserved. But FaceTime has been something their mom has pushed for. PP, does your son express the same reluctance to talk to you when he is with his dad? In my case, they don’t ever ask to FaceTime with their mom, but we do because it is part of the established norm. I encourage it and don’t ever say things like “you just need to say a quick hello” like it is something they’re forced to have to do.[/quote] Yes, same reluctance to talk to me when he is with dad. I know DS doesn’t like to talk on the phone, so I intentionally keep the conversation short when my ex/DS calls. And if they don’t call, that’s ok too.[/quote]
