[quote=Anonymous]My DH would call my parents more often if they wanted and he calls so that DD can talk to the grandparents, especially on days he's home with her and I'm at work. DH & my dad have email exchanges that I'm not part of and when my dad is visiting, my husband tries to have at least one outing with him that's just guy time. I think part of it is cultural. I'm American and I have a great relationship with my parents, but we just aren't in constant contact - there's no standing weekly phone date and when we do call, it's 20 minutes max. My husband's Asian and he g-chats with his mom every couple of days and tries to call her weekly, which often lasts for an hour. So, I actually talk to my MIL more often than my own mom some months, just because my MIL makes a point of being in communication, whereas my mom & I more call when we have something to chat about or if either of us realizes it's been awhile and we should catch up.
