Recently, I got into an argument with my younger daughter regarding an upcoming trip. The problem was lack of communication about rental cars and specifics of the trip. It is true that I didn't ask for specifics, but I was waiting for more information - which never came. Thus this complaint. Why is it that my kids are not very supportive of me? They are both on Facebook; they both regularly check email. I frequently "Like" pictures they post, news that they post, and other things that they share on FB. They rarely say anything to me. They don't "Like" any of my posts. They don't encourage me when I am feeling down. Why don't they ask me questions, initiate communication, send me things that they think I might enjoy? I just don't get it.
I know John doesn't like or understand music, but both of my kids do. Why aren't they more supportive of what I am trying to do with music? So what if it isn't their style. Why can't they be more encouraging anyway?
Do they feel the same about me? Do they feel that I am not supportive of their interests? Or do they just not care?
Sigh.
