Some parents are the funniest texters. One time, my mom texted me to let me know that the dog I performed in a community theater production of Anything Goes with in 2017 had sadly passed away. That's the kind of news only your mom would text, and I'm always grateful for the hilariously random things she sends.
Parents of a certain age have a funny way of breaking news over text. They will straight-up message you, "Can we talk? It's important," or "Tell me when you get home from work; I need to call you," just to tell you that your brother got a new trash can that she thinks would work well in your apartment too. You're not supposed to text "We need to talk" unless something incredibly grave is afoot, and it can be sort of difficult for our Gen X and Baby Boomer parents to understand that.
