[quote=Anonymous]I agree with them — I would be hurt that my mom wanted to travel for a month when I’m only home for 10 weeks. Everyone away at college or living in a new city for the first time or, heck, in their 40s and raising kids wants to believe their mom misses them and wants nothing more than to spend time with them. You’ve just told your kids that you’d rather travel than see them. That doesn’t sound clingy to me. That sounds completely reasonable. I also have questions about what you’re doing that you can’t talk when they call. Would it work better for you all to set up times when you talk? You might be making them feel unimportant and like you feel you have better things to do.
