Yeah, this can be a generational cultural difference.
I mourned the death of my grandfather three separate times when my mother texted me "please call". Each time when I called back I learned something different:
- We had to change our lunch plans.
- There was an alarming local news article about driving conditions.
- My grandfather had died.
-
If these were all in the same day that's quite the series of events
-
Lol. Different days. But at least I got to get through a few of the stages of grief early.

The last time my dad called was 16 years ago when my mum was bleeding out after surgery and we didn't know if she was going to make it.
Other than that, it's WhatsApp messages, and they're usually about the dog.
I would 100% think someone had died if my dad called.

If not death, at least something horrible has happened. The last time my dad called me, it was to tell me he wasn't actually me or my brothers biological dad, lmfao.
-
Imagine if he said that by message 💀
-
"Not your daddy, xoxo."
