[quote=Anonymous]My mom used to live 2.5 hours away, with no traffic. Prior to that she was on the west coast for a few years. So she has always lived where it suited her, not where her family was. Last year she moved a bit closer to the DC area, about 2 hours from us. This is near the Delaware beaches, so two hours can easily be four hours in a normal year with all the beach traffic. She is upset with us because she “moved closer to family and still rarely sees us.” We have two kids and we both work full time, busy jobs with no help. Pre-pandemic we visited her a couple times after she moved, but since then we have seen her once. She’s hurt because she feels so alone even though we live “close” by. A two hour drive on a good day is not an easy trip for us - how do others feel? Am I right to think she is being unreasonable? I feel bad we don’t see her often but if she really wanted to be close, she should have moved closer. [/quote]
