[quote=Anonymous]In my family parents/grandparents almost never call kids/grandkids unless there's a specific reason because they don't want to call at a bad time.  They'd much rather the kids call when they want to talk.

My DD is in college.  She's busy with classes, a part-time job, studying, and hopefully having a little time to relax.  I don't want to be pestering her.  I may rarely send her an email or text something I may send her something I think might be of interest, with the understanding that no reply is required.  Even more rarely, if I need to ask her something, I'd generally do it via text or e-mail, or send a request asking her to call me ASAP.  It would have to be pretty urgent for me to be phoning her.  She knows that I always love to talk to her, but that there are no expectations that she has to call me.  I'm beyond grateful that she calls frequently, but if she didn't that would be okay too.  When I don't hear from her for a while, I just take it that she's busy living her life, which is a good thing.[/quote]
