[quote=Anonymous]'d love advice. I try to call my widowed father every night, and my young kids talk to him too. He looks forward to it every evening. However, sometimes life gets in the way and we just miss a call -- and when we do, he guilt trips me. Last night, my husband and I were in a fight, my son was having a meltdown about homework, and it was just a busy night. We couldn't call. So he texted: HEY! Then 10 minutes later: HEY!!! I replied that we couldn't call because we were busy and please not to yell. He replied: "Not yelling, whining. Is everything ok?" It just made me more mad. I feel like I can't "miss" a night even for a good reason without explaining myself. I was already stressed about what was going on within my *own* family and my kids' whining. I have yet to respond. Any ideas? He has no cognitive or physical health issues. He just lives alone and is lonesome, which I understand.[/quote]
