My parents stay only about 500km away, so I call and meet up with them quite often. I really feel lucky to be able to do so, because I spent all my life with them, until I got married. I just never wanted to leave them at all!

I call my mom at least once every two days, to ask questions about financial aid, talk about her recent move to Arizona, basically everything that's going on in our lives. My dad.. not so often. He is harder to get a hold of because his work schedule is random and I only ever seem to catch him when he's at work. But I talk to him at least once every two days.

I normally call my parents once a week. Not only to let them know I'm doing ok, but also to show them I care about them, especially for my mom. We can carry on the conversation for hours. But then, I hardly tell them about my problems when I encounter one, since I dont' want them to worry about me...we are way to far apart from distance...so, I believed I don't want them to worry about me. In addition, they can't help in most of time anyway. In the case of if I know I'll be out of town, I let them know in advance, so they won't worry why I didn't call at normal time. Of course, I share with them for the fun I enjoy during the trip.

I live a couple thousand miles away from my mom and haven't seen her for a couple of years, so I call my mom daily if not more than that. I call her when I have questions about my daughter, when I need advice, when I need recipes, when I need to talk (she's pretty much my best friend). I think there has only been a few times that I didn't call her daily and when I don't call her she calls me. I don't know if I could go a week without calling my mom.

I call them at least once a week, or they come visit me. Im a married woman and also a business woman so maybe they will understand how busy i am right now. I just got them know that im okey and still surviving.

I usually text my mam every second day or so. I would pop out to my mams maybe 3 or 4 times a week. My dad does be in work most times but usually see him 2 or 3 times a week when he is in the house.
