When was the last time you called your mom?

I just did over the weekend. We were making dinner plans for my birthday. On average, I usually talk to her once a week. She lives here in San Diego. I have to think if you live in the same city as your mom, once a week is probably the norm. I do have a younger brother. He talks to her every day, but that’s because he still lives at home.

I talked to her today. She called me just to say hi. Usually it’s her calling me, but sometimes I’ll call her. She lives here. I would guess that I talk to her several times a week. My brother just moved to Brooklyn, and he doesn’t talk to her as often because of the long distance. I’m Asian, so we have that family tightness. Family is really important.

I talk to her every day, back and forth. She lives in Texas, but when I went to school in Houston, I still talked to her quite often. My mom and I are real close. I’m assuming that with guys, you might find more that don’t talk to their mothers on a regular basis.

I talked to my mom last Tuesday. I usually talk to her once a week. They live in Maryland. I’m guessing I’d talk to her more if I lived there. There’s that whole time-change difference that does it. Well, that’s what I tell her if she says she hasn’t heard from me in a while.

I talked to her today. She told me she was going to join this silent convent. I told her she’d never make it. She can’t shut up. She’s actually a bit insane. So, lately, I’ve only been talking to her once a week. She lives in Capitola, up near Santa Cruz.

It was today, actually. She was telling me about some crazy herbal remedy or something. She lives here, and I probably talk to her once a week. I know some people that go months without talking to their parents. Each person is different, and I guess it depends what you and your mother talk about.
