<p>My mom expects me to call her a couple of times a day, actually, lol. I have a bad habit of sleeping through alarms so she’d like me to call her in the mornings to make sure I’m awake and I’ll call her sometime in the afternoon/evening to talk to her for whatever reason. She typically doesn’t call me though because she doesn’t know when I’m doing something. This is my first time away from home and I’m slowly starting to call her less and less but then I’ll feel bad for not calling because she’s (kinda) footing the bill for me to be here and stuff. But the conversations are rarely ever longer than 10 minutes. It’s usually her asking how to check her email or something like that and wanting to know about my day. So it’s not too bad.</p>
<p>I’d be annoyed if she called me all the time for nothing. Tell her that you’re busy doing work and you don’t want your grades to suffer. You’ll call her when you have the time but she’s interrupting your studies and being a distraction. Or just stop answering from time to time and say that your phone was on silent or you left it in your room.</p>
