[quote=Anonymous]I think it's an awful idea. My grandmother has been my rock for years, more of a mother to me than my mother ever was. She's always been happy to have me call her... but she's not always available. Sometimes I call her 2-4 times a day for a gut check on whether I'm doing the right thing with a child. Sometimes I don't call for a week or so. But when I was 18-25, newly on my own, socially awkward? Having that lifeline was the best thing for me. My suggestion would be to make yourself unavailable a few nights of the week (even if you are home and just don't pick up the phone) and ask what she did that day when she seems about to start complaining about no friends. Talk to her about what you do (and start doing things to tell her about).[/quote]
