[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Well I am trying to do stuff for her. And her special event and our upcoming international trip. I think parents should have a way to reach their own child.

She is 26 years old.

I am really over this.

They want to be treated like adults, so should step up and act that way.

(And those of you who are snarkily judgemental are off base. But I guess being smug somehow feels good to you.)[/quote]

I get it OP. My kids ignore text from me as well. I couldn’t get away with stuff like that with parents in my culture, I would have been dismiss and forgotten😂 I try to teach the value of treating family members like they matter, I guess it didn’t take. Any interactions have to be in their own terms because they’re so ‘busy.’ It’s very different with my family of origin, we are very involved in each other’s lives and prioritize being accessible. My kids will say, “that’s your culture, not mine.” 😟 It makes me grateful for my sisters, aunts and cousins. Parents are deceased [/quote]
