How many times a week do you talk to your mom?
How many times a week do you talk to your mom? 1? 5? not even one? Just curious.
Re: How many times a week do you talk to your mom?
Max 1 time per week. Often, not even that much.
Our relationship was very dysfunctional, and while it is a bit better now, I am happier when I don't speak to her all the time.
1 - 2, plus we go over to their house once a week or so.
My husband talks to his mom once or twice a year. He talks to his dad the most out of anyone in his family, and that's only maybe 3 or 4 times a year.
At least 5 days a week. I call her on the way to drop the kids off most days.
Now my Dad is a whole other story. We maybe talk once a month.
This and lately, it's been more like once every two to three weeks that we talk.

Usually 2-3 times per week, sometimes not even that much.
We're close, but don't always have time to catch up. We will sometimes text here & there during the week, too.

I haven't talked to my mom in over a year.
But before we stopped talking, I talked to her almost daily. Though it was dysfunctional. I see that now. Less contact would have been good for us.

Once a week at the most. I talk to my dad probably once every 2 weeks. We aren't very close and I feel like I have nothing to talk to them about...*shrugs*
Usually once a day. Sometimes every other day. I'm an only child and she likes to check in and get updates about her grandaughter since we live a thousand miles away. The convos are quick.
Once a week or so. If I go too long without talking to her and I miss her calls she'll mention it to one of my four sisters and they will text me and tell me to call her.
I talk to my dad on the phone once a month or so. My mom also usually puts me on speaker so my dad can listen too... but he usually wanders away because we get to chatting about stuff he doesn't care about.
I talk to my mom most days, although if we are busy we might go 3-4 days without talking. We live about 30 minutes apart and we don't see each other as much as we'd like, so we chit chat on the phone instead. I talk to my dad (who is married to my mother) about 1x per week. If he answers when I call, we chat a lot more. He just isn't a phone person.
Before I moved to Germany, once or twice a week. Since I have moved here, Every other day or so.
This is due to Monkey's growing up and doing new, cute/funny/stupid things and my personal boredom. I have found some great friends, but no one that I can complain to (being a military community and my DH's stupid job, I am stuck with who and what I can confidence in). With the time difference, my other BFF's are not as available as before.
about 0.4 times per week
We talk about once a month.
