[quote=Anonymous]I have two brothers, aged 38 and 36. We live in different countries, and my brothers are TERRIBLE at keeping in touch. If I did not periodically contact them, we would have no contact. When contacted, they talk only about themselves and never asks about me or anyone else. They make no attempt to communicate with our 96 year old grandfather at all. To be fair, our mother died young and they were never actually taught to do these things. One brother has a baby now, so when I do make contact with him, talks only about his child. He has never asked about my child once in any conversation, even after talking for long stretches about his baby, and no, I don't bring up my child or my own life when he doesn't ask. This brother has recently started reaching out, which entails sending multiple videos of his baby, with no text. I take it on his terms and stick to the topics he is willing to discuss, which are himself and his baby.[/quote]
