The majority of people on HN are technically-inclined, in their 20s and live in places where Christmas is celebrated.<p>We get really busy and caught up in things. I get it. We move far away, we create our own life, and where you used to see these folks every day, now you might not see them for long periods of time.<p>Call your folks.<p>Those of us with grown children look forward to hearing from them. Even if you don&#x27;t celebrate the holiday, it&#x27;s a time of year where families think of each other. Yes, you might have had a spat and don&#x27;t want to go through that again. Yes, talking to the folks can be tiresome. But it only takes a few minutes and I promise you that you&#x27;ll live through it.<p>So pick up the phone already.
Call your folks
