Children

Why is it that you never see or hear from your kids unless they need or want something? I really don't like the way they take you for granted and run around enjoying themselves without regard to your well being. I can see them being independent, but they could at least check in, say hello, and see if your ok. Letting your parents know your ok, and doing well is much better than them finding out from someone else. I only see or hear from my children, when they need something. I suppose I taught them too well how to be independent and make your own world. I didn't mean for them to totally exclude me.
