I wouldn’t be able to parent at all if it wasn’t for my amazing Mom. W and I are both so incredibly lucky to have her in our lives.
Because I live with my Mom I talk to her a bajillion times a day. We are Mother and daughter and we are also housemates. I wonder how often everyone else talks to their Mom.

We are living at my parents’ for an indefinite (though not permanent!) amount of time right now, so I currently talk to my mom many times a day. Otherwise, at least a few times a week, either to ask her advice about something, share something funny/maddening one of the kids did, or just check in. She drives me crazy sometimes, but I think we are pretty close, at least compared to the relationship most of my friends have with their mothers.
I would add a choice for other-than-talking communication. Because I probably only talk to her once a week or once every 1.5 weeks, but I text her or email her often.
I voted “once a day” but on many days it can be multiple times…and as Robin said, I also email and text my mom a lot. It’s a very rare day that goes by without any form of communication between us.
Once or twice a week. She’s a little neurotic unfortunately.
Oh, what I would give to be able to actualy talk to my mom again….
Happy birthday to your mom!
Happy birthday to your Mom!!! My Mom is my bff. I hate that I now live 600 miles away when we used to live in the same neighborhood.
I voted “once a day” for talking to my Mom. I talk to her every day!
Last night I called my mom to ask about Christmas presents for the nieces… A few minutes into our conversation we determined that we were actually 3 aisles apart at the same Target!
I talk to her multiple times on some days, but some days not at all. I voted a few times a week, but we see her a few times a week too. We are very close and I’m so happy that she’s 7 minutes down the road now instead of 12 hours.
I talked to my mom every single day on the phone and saw her at least once a week when she was alive. It’s been a hard year not having that anymore. You’re very lucky to have a mom that you’re so close to!
My mom and i have a weekly 3 hour phone date. She is my best friend and i hate hate hate being across the country from her. Holidays are especially hard. Love you and happy late birthday to lolly!!!
Since my divorce, I have leaned on my mom like I did back in my younger days. Though she can drive me loopy with her constant advice about the kids and what I should do that will only “take a minute” to do, I don’t think I would’ve made it. And by the way… She has a million things for me to do that will, “take a minute,” so that’s a million minutes.
My mom has been supportive of me and has done everything financially and physically to help me raise my three kids. As the months have moved forward, she has slipped into the background more, resuming her grandma role, but we still talk several times a day.
