[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am so wary of all these stories that I go the opposite direction and never really hit up my kids. If they hit me up I often take up to a half hour to call them back and try to adjust my demeanor ahead of time. I felt like my divorced parents terrorized me with their required phone calls - dad had to have it at 7am and I had to pick up, mom called me up to 10 times a day to the point where my work told me they could not stop keep patching her through. She was just sitting on her bed all day with an old fashioned corded phone by her side, trying to look up old HS people by calling operators and asking for listings. (No internet yet) So now I hate to get an unexpected phone call at all. Like it truly startles me.[/quote] There are therapists who talk about this. Those of us with narc parents don't want "to bother" our own kids with phone calls. Then, our kids think we don't care. Something to look out for...[/quote]
