Confession time
My daughter wants communication to happen on her timeline and is not happy when we initiate calling. She calls when she has time and is in a mood to talk. Any other way never works out well.
I try to be understanding and know that she struggles with anxiety and OCD. I know she’s very busy. But it’s certainly frustrating that we don’t feel that we can just call her and check up on her.
It’s the only person that is this way within our family. And I promise, we do not overuse and have called all the time. But unless there were a death in the family or a family emergency that a text wouldn’t work, I wait for her to call.
