[QUOTE="toughlovin, post: 677470, member: 15801"] Hi Rebelson, I relate to all that you say. My son does tend to call or contact me when he needs something, although more recently I have gotten some update emails that were just communication and I treasure those. I have to say that I think kids this age as a rule are still pretty self centered and don't really think about their parents feelings or needs. My daughter, who is a great very together kid is also like this..... Our relationship is not yet what I would really call mutual. She is not that interested in my life.... I am there to support her. And I remember at that age that I was the same way towards my mom.... It wasn't til I was a bit older our relationship become much more mutual. And yes sometimes the sadness of it all hits me like a ton of bricks! I will say those times happen less often now and don't last as long as they used to. TL [/QUOTE]
