[quote=Anonymous]It sounds like he's doing well. But I think texting him to check in is totally reasonable. We dropped off DS on Monday and I did not expect to hear from him or contact him until the weekend but he did happen to call Tues night because he wanted his sister to pick up something from the HS. It was definitely a big relief for me to hear that he's settling in well. A regular weekly call, at a time he says works for him is not an unreasonable expectation. Some kids communicate more and some less. There's no one right cadence. I've never been a talk-on-the-phone person and my mom says when my sister and I were in college that she'd know something was not right with me if I started calling home a lot while she knew there was an issue with my sister if she *stopped* calling.[/quote]
