[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP's post struck a chord with me because it reminds me of how my mother acted when I was a teen.  The result was the more she pushed, the more I pushed back, until I realized my parents might not pay for college.  So I towed the line my last two years of high school.  I went to college out of state and found summer jobs near school -- "sorry, can only come home for a short visit, I have to keep working on my resume."  The first 10 years after college I would visit my parents for 5-6 days a year.  In the last 10 years, I have not visited once and have spoken to my mother no more than 1 hour a year.  In the end, she damaged our relationship to the point that I didn't want a relationship with her.

Sounds like there is a lot more going on here than you've told us.

In particular, if your mom isn't making any effort herself to renew contact with you, it's pretty clear you own some of the responsibility for the rift. [/quote]
