+25 Such a shame when adult children don’t call their parents (the non-toxic parents of course). Amirite?

The dietician at work had a stroke like incident and I knew before her son He's too busy to call and has no clue

I'm sure it is, in certain circumstances. If I called my parent a lot just to 'chat' though, he would find it odd. If he lived alone I would definitely call more, just to make sure he's okay.

Every situation is different This particular post stems from the sadness I feel for our dietician at work and I understand that not every circumstance will the same for other parent-child bonds

I'm guilty of not calling as much as I should. No excuse is acceptable. Sometimes it's tough when they have gone downhill to the point where they don't know who they are talking to, or keep repeating things, but still, it's not a good excuse.

Who do parents love more than their children? NOBODY. Go call your mom and dad. Mine are gone and I sure wish that I had more time to talk to them.

I wonder if they love their grandchildren more than children

I can't speak for anyone else but not in this house.

It is. I call my mum at least once a week. Like that cliché quote says: you'll miss it when you don't have it anymore.

I can't speak for all, but I call or visit my parents almost every day.

Maybe the parents never raised their children right.

Guilty as charged, I don't remember to call my relatives very often. Not that I don't want to I just don't always remember to. But my parents call me every week, even though they've been abroad for more than 10 years. I'd say I'm still very close to them despite the distance.
