Today, I called my mom from Australia. I have been abroad for two months and hadn't talked to her in a long time. A few minutes into the conversation my moms stops me and says this call must cost a fortune and hangs up on me. A few bucks in more important to her then me. FML

Weren't you calling her? She was just probably wanting you to save your money for the trip.

The last sentence just ruined this one for me. Quit crying. And it's "than" not "then".

Have you ever thought that she might have been thinking of you when she said that because she didn't want you spending all your money on a phone call to her? Try Skype or an email next time. I am sure she will be more pleased to see you if she knows you aren't spending a ton of money to do it, money you may need later for general living upkeep.

That is the truth and nothing but the truth!

I travel abroad a lot and talk to my mom when I am away for large amounts of time. Some parents refuse to touch a computer, like my mom, so everyone judging who doesn't know OP's situation shouldn't be.
