[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Same! Even down to the point where my dad calls me to tell me my mom is upset I haven't called. It's such a weird dynamic. Neither my parents nor my inlaws call us. I'm really not into facetime though. My kids are young and hate it so much, they'd rather just talk on the phone.

I told my inlaws once to feel free to call me and I will put the kids on the phone. They said no, we'd prefer facetime. No thanks! I don't have time to manage factime when I'm cooking dinner/caring for the baby/trying to get kids asleep. Phone calls don't need me to babysit them.[/quote]

My in laws do this to me. My FIL would call ME and tell me that DH doesn’t call MIL enough. It was sooo passive. The first time it happened I was so shocked and couldn’t say anything. The second time I told them to call DH. 
They always complain we don’t call enough, which is true. But when we do call the phone call is about 7 minutes and then they just hang up even if they kids are trying to tell them something. But my in laws only call between dinner time and bedtime. I tell them call anytime but 5-7 is dinner and bedtime and just busy call any other time. They always call between 5 and 7.[/quote]
