Growing up, my mum and I would go to my grandparents house every weekend, pretty much without fail. At the time my mum worked full time and my grandparents were retired but as i was a kid i didn't really think anything of it but they'd never come to us. Not once unless it was for my dad to have a look at the car (he was a mechanic) or something along those lines.

Now i'm an adult and this routine has kinda been passed down to me, my mum simply will not visit us. She drives and has been retired for 10 years and we live less than a 30 minute drive away….she'll occasionally moan about how she never sees the kids and in my head i'm like "well, you know where we fucking live?"

does anyone else have parents with this mentality?
