I feel like I have a cuppa and a natter with my mum every day. But typically, it’s surface level chatter, small talk, how’s your day, what’s for tea type stuff.
During the pandemic, I began working from home, and honestly, I’d never seen more of my mum and dad. I’d gone from high school and heading straight out with friends afterwards, to university and a part time job, to taking on my first graduate job back in 2019.
Despite living with them, our paths rarely crossed, so it’s only really been the last two years that I've really gotten to know them as adults on a personal level, rather than simply caregivers.
