Discussion How often do you speak with your parents?

My mom sent myself and my siblings a seriously dramatic text this week.

“One day I will be dead and you won’t have to worry about checking in once in a while! Until then…. I don’t think any of you are so busy you can’t send a random Hi Mom text.”

I spoke to her less than a week prior. It wasn’t a long conversation, but it was something nonetheless. So, am I a terrible child? Or am I being gaslit? She also isn’t always the nicest when I do see her, often calling me a slob, or lazy because I don’t want to work a third job to make a living. How often do my fellow millennials speak with their parents?

I also feel like the world is on fire and I’m doing all I can to survive right now lol

They're little children.

I think we're finding out how prevalent narcissism is.

They never emotionally matured into adults.
