Here's the next gripe!

So far away I try and communicate with mu grandchildren. I send a link to something I think they might be interested/amused by and days later, if I'm lucky, I get a one word reply.

Most recently "cool" in relation to a picture we took together of an animal used on a website, and "I wonder" in reply to a question "whose hands are shown in this photo?"

Whose hands?

We didn't always get a reply. The questions more often than not were not answered. There was no news of his family... That's today's gripe! What do you think? I'd love your thoughts.
