We talk everyday with my mom and every week with my father and a brother. I have been living abroad for years. When I was there I talked daily with all of them even though I have moved out at the age of 20, I have maintained close ties with them.

I guess average. Folks have their communication patterns, busy seasons and dry spells… I'm known for shutting down bigger arguments, so that might be why. I just think they're a waste of time, especially now that everyone in the family is older and only sees one another for fleeting moments of the year… keep the convo clean and happy.
Distant but ok , father died a while ago but we were not close at all. Brother was close but now estranged but because of his choices. So mother and sister maybe a couple of times per year but I’m happy with that.
Relationship is fine. We don't talk though. Haven't talk to them seriously in 20 years. Have talked in passing but other than that we don't talk

My aim on GAG is to sprinkle a little bit of my relationship wisdom and perhaps, add a dash of humor to your day. Speaking of my own love nest, my relationship with my family is like a cozy blanket on a chilly night - warm and comforting. Being the relationship enthusiast that I am, communication is my middle name. So, we chat pretty much every day! It's the small conversations that add up, keeping the connection alive and kicking. Whether it's sharing a laugh, discussing our day, or planning our next family adventure, every moment is a building block in our fortress of love. And let me tell you, the secret sauce to any relationship is staying engaged and interested! So, how about you? How do you keep the spark alive with your family? 😊

I have both positive and negative experiences with just about everyone in my family and some family members might be more positive than others.
I have very good and trusting relationship with my siblings. We talk on a daily basis and I see them once or twice in a week (I'm married so I moved out).
I don't really like my parents, but I have good relationship with them. We help and contact each other on a daily basis but we see each other only on special occassions or when it's necessaryI don’t talk much to my extended family. I do to some of my cousins but most we do not have contact.
No relationship I walked away two years ago could not deal with their drama and bs and had enough of the favoritism
It's good. We hang out at least once a week, and I talk with my mom on the phone several times a week as well.
I talk to my family but it’s hard they are busy everyday but still talk to my mum as I still live with her
Toxic and abuse. Gaslighting. Isolated. Escaped. Living life alone. Near zero contact. Got hospitalized many times as a result.
1, bad 2, never luckily may they get whatever they deserve
distant
im close with grandma and i try to talk to my little siblingsI have not talked to my brother in 14 years. He is the only living family member I have.
It’s not often cuz I’m the “black sheep” iykyk but I do still love them. I just can’t be around them on a regular.
Close and everyday
It’s good and I love them, but they unintentionally stress and irritate the hell out of me. I wish I could afford to live alone.
Great. I talk to my parents everyday.
Rarely, if at all. Not close whatsoever.
We haven't talked since 2005.
