Hello, dear mylotters, do you live with your parent? How often do you call them? Do you have lots to talk with them?

I call my parent once in two days, if I am not, they will call me in the third day. We have quite many topic to talk about. How about you? Do you think there is gap between you and your parent?

I call my parents at least once a day and on many occasions I could call up to 3 times a day. My parents live in Florida so I don't get to see them as offen as I wish. So I call and or skype them. Which is one of the best inventions ever.

I don't live with my parents, my dad lives with me and I support him because he's now old ans stricken in years. I call him every day, but not on the phone. We can talk of anything under the sun. My mom died nine years ago so I don't have a mother to talk to. I am just grateful that my dad is still alive to see his son and his grandsons and granddaughter.

Hello karen,

I live far from my parents and from my siblings.
But i don't missed them that much coz,we always call each other almost everyday and send text messages everyday.

And,i am also thankful for this internet,i am able to see them thru webcam.
My mom and i used to chat everyday so,in this manner i don't missed her absence.

And,i always tried to visit my siblings 2 times a year during December break and summer vacation.


myLot reputation of 98/100. karenkarenkk (399)   ranked 192 out of 19,133 in questions & answers  2 months ago

Hello, Jaiho, so do you spend quite a lot on your phone charge? Is the communicational charge in your country expensive? It's quite expensive here, only about half hours talking spend one-tenths of my daily earning. My parents do not know how to use a computer, so we never chat by internet.

Thanks for your response and have a nice day.


myLot reputation of 99/100. jaiho2009 (1264)   ranked 78 out of 19,133 in questions & answers  2 months ago

there are lot of promos for smart calls here in our country my friend.
Like,20 pesos(US$ 40 cents)for 10 minutes,and 20 pesos for 2 days texting messages.
Other networks here even offers a monthly unlimited calls for only 300 pesos($8 US dollar)
And even internet connections,there are low rates offers for computer to mobile calls. happy


myLot reputation of 98/100. karenkarenkk (399)   ranked 192 out of 19,133 in questions & answers  2 months ago

Hi Jaiho, you remind me, there is such promote in our country. But only for the same city or same province, or it does not work...

As for me. I do not live with my parents. But I have to admit it's like I never left home. I only live 5-10 minutes away. So I usually drop by every other day. But when I'm not there I'm usually talking to my mom on the webcam or on the phone. Speaking of which, I should really just move back home...save some money on rent...


myLot reputation of 98/100. karenkarenkk (399)   ranked 192 out of 19,133 in questions & answers  2 months ago

Hello, Fernandezmindoro, if I were you, my mother would not let me rent a house while it seems unnecessary. happy Anyway, I may choose to rent one if I have my own family. It is good to being with them, but sometimes, different view about some things is really annoying, especially it comes to kid, I find I hardly compromise with them. sad

Well, I've moved out of my parents house about 3 years ago and I rarely call them but this is due to the fact that my mom calls me almost every day. Most of the time she calls to see how am I doing and making small talk and rarely about a real problem/issue/concern/question.


myLot reputation of 98/100. karenkarenkk (399)   ranked 192 out of 19,133 in questions & answers  2 months ago

Hello, Grimsage, thanks for your response. Yeah, all parents love their kids, but to lots of them, there is a gap in between. Why not call your mother sometimes before she call you, I think she must be glad if you do that. lol Have a nice day and happy mylotting to you.


grimsage (13)  2 months ago

The problem is that I can't keep up and call her before she calls me:D, but now and then I try to phone her first;) Have a nice day and happy mylotting to you too.

I live in a state different from my parents. I used to live with them for twenty one years of my life and now I am enjoying freedom and learning many things being away from home. I miss my home and parents. I am having a busy work schedule and it is not easy for me to find time to make calls to them often. But, I call them once in a week and they do the same to me.

I don't live with my parents. I live with my husband, two hours away from our parents as we go to university two hours away from where they live. I don't really talk to my parents very often. I'm not really close to my parents. I'd probably say that I talk to my grandmother and my mother-in-law more often than I do with my parents. I just don't really have a great relationship with either of them.


myLot reputation of 98/100. karenkarenkk (399)   ranked 192 out of 19,133 in questions & answers  2 months ago

Hello, Dodo, I believe some people are more closed to their mother-in-law than to their parents. Relationship need to be build by bothside...


myLot reputation of 96/100. dodo19 (4182)   ranked 956 out of 19,133 in questions & answers  2 months ago

Yes, I agree with you. A relationship should be based by both sides. Both should work on the relationship. Otherwise it doesn't really work.

hello karen!

how are you/

me, i also don't live with my parents but i just call them once in a week...hehe but that was a hole day talk through texting, anyway its not because we don't have much things to talked about, but because they are also busy and in just one day, we can talked everything & anything and that's enough for us...that way we don't missed each other that much...but when we saw each other...wow! haha we can talk almost the whole day! about just anything...hehe


myLot reputation of 98/100. karenkarenkk (399)   ranked 192 out of 19,133 in questions & answers  2 months ago

Hello, Ckyera, nice to meet you again. I am fine. And hope you are fine too. happy

Does youre parents still working? My parents never get a job, they work for themself, and now they only have a vegetable garden to take care, they grow vegetable for themself.


myLot reputation of 99/100. ckyera (2326)   ranked 11 out of 19,133 in questions & answers  2 months ago

hi karen!
im fine also...

well my father is still working and my mom just stay at home, taking care of my father & my brother...doing all the things in the house...
its nice that your parents do have a garden of their own, its really nice to have our own garden, planting our own food...that way we can make sure that the veggies we're eating are really fresh!happy


myLot reputation of 98/100. karenkarenkk (399)   ranked 192 out of 19,133 in questions & answers  2 months ago

Hi, dear ckyera, my parents is living in a village, every family there have earth for them to grow plant. Yeah, it is great that they can eat pesticide-free and fresh vegetable. You remind me that we use refrigerator to keep our food fresh. Actually it is not fresh after several days storage. My prent-in-law like buying lots of vegetable, meet, other food in one time and keep them for more than 10 days. cry


myLot reputation of 99/100. ckyera (2326)   ranked 11 out of 19,133 in questions & answers  2 months ago

hi karen...

well that's one good thing about living in the village...we can plant our own food and life is more simple... something that i miss now that i am living in the city...

10 days storage in the fridge? huh! isn't the veggies get rotten? me, i also store some foods in the fridge, say meat, chicken, eggs, veggies...but just for few days and a week being the longest...
but anyway, i think if it is properly stored, then it will still be good for consumption...


myLot reputation of 98/100. karenkarenkk (399)   ranked 192 out of 19,133 in questions & answers  2 months ago

Yeah, the food are becoming very bad after long period storage. I try to throw them away when my parent-in-law is not at home. Their hometwon is very far away from mine, and we have quite a big different habit...


myLot reputation of 99/100. ckyera (2326)   ranked 11 out of 19,133 in questions & answers  2 months ago

mmmm, well i guess with veggies, long storage is not really recommended...

so you are living with your in laws?


myLot reputation of 98/100. karenkarenkk (399)   ranked 192 out of 19,133 in questions & answers  2 months ago

Yeah, Once they keep some meet for a long time and want to feed my son. I say don't let him eat it, I will eat it. My mother-in-law seems are not so happy, and my fater-in-law really frighten me, he said, what does that matter, even meat kept in refrigerator for half year, it can be eat...

I just try not to oppose them directly, as I know my mother-in-law do not like that...


myLot reputation of 99/100. ckyera (2326)   ranked 11 out of 19,133 in questions & answers  2 months ago

aww...well, that's really a common problem when we are living with our in laws, coz we have different beliefs & way of raising our children...that's why i don't wish of living with my inlaw...well, i like her & i love her, but yeah, im afraid that we may clash if we live on the same roof! hehe but i know she's a good mom in law...and maybe im not a good daughter in law..hehe just kidding...

anyway, i think meat is just good when in fridge just for a week... that's just what i think.
maybe you can try telling those things to your husband, so that he can help you in explaining to his parents...
so don't you have plans of living to other house instead?


myLot reputation of 98/100. karenkarenkk (399)   ranked 192 out of 19,133 in questions & answers  2 months ago

Hello, Ckyera, thanks a for coming back again.

Actually I asked my parent-in-law to live with us. We are living together only for about half month. My son used to lived with my parent in another city. I miss my son very much so we ask my parent-in-law come to live with us for several months and taking care of my son. My parent-in-law are living in a west-north city, and we are living in the south, they only agree to stay here when the weather is not hot...

Yeah, I may ask my husband to talk to them... But I am a little worry my mother-in-law will think it's me telling my husband all bout those, and the relationship will get worse...


myLot reputation of 99/100. ckyera (2326)   ranked 11 out of 19,133 in questions & answers  2 months ago

aww, i see, maybe you are still adjusting with each other since you are just living with each other for half a month..maybe sooner all will be better...

i thought you are a stay at home mom? so why you need to ask for your in law to take care of your son?

hmmm, if you can't tell it to your husband, well i guess, you just need to adjust for them...and be more understanding... happy


myLot reputation of 98/100. karenkarenkk (399)   ranked 192 out of 19,133 in questions & answers  2 months ago

No, I have a day time job currently. I do hope I have a free job that allow me to work at home. Please let me know if you have some good introduction. happy

Yeah, I will try my best to adjust myself and keep a good relationship with them.

Thank you for your kind advice. Have a great day!


myLot reputation of 99/100. ckyera (2326)   ranked 11 out of 19,133 in questions & answers  2 months ago

oh i see...well that's a common problem for those working moms...
how i wish i could help you, but sad to say coz right now, i don't have any home based work...but i hope you could find one so that you can spend more time with your child...

you are such a good daughter in law...and that's so nice of you!thumbup
yeah, we should learn to adjust with our parents in law & love them & respect them the way we love & respect our own parents...your husband will really appreciate that... happy


myLot reputation of 98/100. karenkarenkk (399)   ranked 192 out of 19,133 in questions & answers  2 months ago
