I typically talk to my mom anywhere from 5-10 times a day. It starts around 6:45am when I start my 45 minute drive to work. Then, we'll text a couple times throughout the day or call if we can. Then, we talk when we both get off around 3. I work in the town where I grew up and my parents still live so I stop over there 2-3 times a week even if it's only to get something to drink for my drive home. Then, on the weekends we'll usually shop together, grab lunch or dinner, or do some baking. We've always been pretty close like this and have only gotten closer since we've gotten married. However, she always asks if my husband is home and we'll only talk for a minute or two if he is. And, I don't talk to her about my marriage. I have never called her to vent about a fight or to ask her input on something marriage related. My husband and I have an agreement that our business is our business. That extends to him talking to his family also.

My mom doesn't text or e-mail but we talk every day, multiple times sometimes and DH/I try to see them at least 1x a week.
I also talk to my MIL once a week and see them at least 1x a week most of the time.
-
not enough.
my mom doesnt do emails or texts, and she's a firm believer that you only call if somethings wrong. I lived with her until i got married, so I'm not really used to not talking to her everyday. but I recently moved to another state (ny/nj --> tx) so we play catch up maybe every 2 weeks. =(
-
I'm kind of amazed at the number of posters that speak with their moms so frequently. My mom is about a 4-hour drive away (she used to live about 18 hours away) and we only speak, email, or facebook about once every other week. Sometimes every week one of those will occur but not unless something important comes up that can't wait.
-
I talk/see my mom probably every other day on average. Sometimes we'll go longer but I try to facetime with her. She's smitten with our little girl.
-
Like 1-2 times a weel. Sometimes text. I dont live in my home state anymore so I get to see her only like once a year! : (
-
I usually talk to my mom once a day... I usually call my parents on my way home from work to say hello. I'm very close to both of my parents, so it works! If one of us is traveling, we usually check in via text or email and call when we can.
-
I don't get along with my mom and have never been very close to her. When I do call home, she immediately gives the phone to my dad. It is a very awkward relationship. I envy those who have a good relationship with their mothers.
-
I talk to my mom almost every day. We take turns calling each other at night. I love talking to my mom.
-
i talk to her about once a week or so. she emails me occasionally now that she learned how to email.
-
We talk a lot, we always have. They only live 10 minutes away so even before the baby we saw them at least once a week, if not more. Now my mom will be here 3-4 times a week.
We don't complain though, she brings dinner, walks the dog, and helps with the baby!
-
As little as possible. My momhas disowned me four times and never apologized any of the times. Now that I'm a mother, I find her actions toward my siblings and I unforgivable. I really can't wait until I can tell her that I really want nothing to do with her and she will be out of my life forever.
-
We talk almost every day. We also email each other while we are at work. My husband doesn't understand how I can communicate with my mom so much-but he is one of three boys so I don't think he really understands or has ever seen the mother/daughter bond in action.
-
I live next door to my mom and I only talk to or see her two or three times a week-- sometimes less. Usually any more than that is Mom Overload and we start to annoy each other.
-
I see my mom usually once a week and talk to her once a week too
-
I talk to my mom on the phone a couple times a week and she just figured out how to text so she texts me a lot. Plus we talk on facebook sometimes.
-
I used to talk to my mom almost every day, and would visit her 2-3 times a week when she was still here. I don't talk to my dad nearly that often... maybe 1-2 times per week. I guess I should call him more
-
My parents live one town over, and I drive past their house on my commute to work, so I stop in usually once a week on the way home. Then my mom and I usually do something (shopping) once every couple weeks, and we talk on the phone probably 5 out of 7 days on a normal week. We're close!
-
My parents live in Europe and travel a lot. So, we communicate mostly be email at least two-three times a week. We try and speak by phone at least once a week. My parents are in the middle of the Australian outback right now so I won't speak to them until after Thanksgiving most likely when they're back in Brisbane.
-
Thank you for this thread. I was reading about how often every one talks to their mom's and I realized I do not call my mom enough.
So I called her last night.
-
My mom and I talk everyday but I don't see her nearly enough since she lives two hours away.
-
I talk to my mom maybe one every other month on average... We dont get along and I only see her maybe once a year as well...
-
Umm, like once a month maybe. We generally get along, although we have our differences. I thought she would call me more often since I moved across the country from her. I've been pretty busy, too. The east coast/ west coast time difference is what really gets me.
-
I talk to my mom all the time - phone calls, text, facebook message, you name it! Once in awhile I'll email her a link or photo but not usually to talk. We live 5 minutes away too so it's easier to see each other as well.
-
I email or talk everyday and see atleast once a week. I only live 30 minutes away, so it is easy!
-
My mother only lives 20 minutes away so I talk to her several times a day and see her at least 4 or 5 days a week. I couldn't imagine going a week or two without talking to her.
