[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My parents were older and refused to call us because "it's the duty of the child to call the parent." I also think, pre smart phones, they were being cheap and didn't want to pay for "long distance calls" but the behavior continued after that wasn't an issue. And, yes, my family is white American. My grandmother was exactly the same way.[/quote] My parents are the same way. My mom will usually text if she hasn't heard from me in a few weeks, but my dad will never call me and when asked says the exact same thing "it's the duty of the child to call the parent."[/quote]
