[quote=Anonymous]OP, sometimes parent relationships aren't the closest if they feel they no longer have "control" of you, or you aren't following their preferred way of life. Happened to me with my parents. They refused to call me, because it was the "child's responsibility to call them" as they were raised. So I dutifully called them once a week, and tried to get them to talk about things that interested them. It was always best if I didn't talk too much about myself; at least your parents don't criticize everything you do, OP, like mine did. Your relationship doesn't have to be all or nothing, it could just be more superficial and low energy on your part, since your parents don't seem to want to engage. I always did better trying to get them to talk about their early lives or family history, which was interesting and good to know. [/quote]
