How often should I phone home? Is once a day too much?

Ivan

Once or day or every other day. You need enough separation and independence.

Rachel

I called home about once a week, just to catch up, usually. The amount would vary depending on the work load I had that week.

Kaitlyn

Once is never too much. I call home everyday, especially after my night classes so my mom doesn't worry. Having a child so far away from home scares and worries parents so it's always nice to check in at home and update them on your life, they will enjoy hearing about new friends and classes. So call once a day or maybe even five times a day, it's really up to you. My mom is one of my best friends so I call her all the time.
