My son neither writes or calls me.?

Call or write him. But, how do you relate to him when he does contact you? Are you still treating him like a child? Are you critical about things in his life? I can understand you want what is best for him, but are you giving him the respect that you yourself would want from another person.

Is the pup in your avatar pic yours? If so...what an adorable little dog. Such a cute expression on his/her face! hehe

TO your question...more details please. How old is your son? One of the hardest things about being a parent is sacrificing and giving up things to raise them then they go on with their life and either settle for less than we know they can accomplish or decide we arent important to them except for that green stuff. It hurts like heck. You cant force someone to love you the way you want to be loved. Sometimes they love us but its with all they have and can give at the time. He may have other priorities right now that are consuming his time and thoughts. And if you worked 3 jobs, he is used to little contact with you. He may appreciate you but be unable to express it or he may be struggling with blaming you for things out of your control. They are good at that one too.

Can you go for a visit? Stay at a hotel near where he lives and visit and have some heart to hearts?

Good luck with this. I hope you find the peace you search for.

The relationships that you have with your children are the ones that you made with them while growing up. You were not there much. Call and write to him. Tell him you love him.

He'll call...when his back is up against the wall. They always do. Be thankful he's not a mommy's boy. My sons don't call me either, but that's okay cause I know they still love me. They're men.

i do not call my mother cos i hate talking to her - she always criticizes me and gives me stupid advices. i am 41, mother of 3, have master degree and have been married twice and she still is treating me like a dumb kid. i do not call her cos i do not want to get aggravated by her blabber. maybe u should reevaluate how u re talking to your son. i love my mother and pity her but i am a human too - i do not like to be aggravated

Ann, its a mom's job to keep in touch with her youngin', especially after they get married and they are men . . . he's busy like you were at that age . . .give him a call or send him a card 'thinking of you'. . . try it . . .

tell him how you feel, i work full time nights with tons of over time, lots of things to do asides from work and i still take time to call and visit my mom and dad even with them living far from me

Try calling or writing him.
