[quote=Anonymous]I have kids this age and they are actually pretty close to several of their aunts/uncles, but they rarely communicate with them through text and they never talk to them on the phone. My kids hate talking on the phone and I think that is typical of this generation. When we are together in person, though, they are happy to talk with them especially if it's over dinner or a card game, rather than just sitting around in the living room. I would say keep trying through texts, but if you have a chance to visit in person it might be better. Offer to take them out to dinner at a place they choose - kids this age are always broke. I wouldn't take their lack of communication as a sign of their interest in a relationship. As someone else said, kids this age are self-absorbed. In other words, it's not you, it's them.[/quote]
