Our 2 1/2 year old does not want to talk to her Nana on the phone, which is a big issue since she lives 3 hours away - we can only visit her about once a month (she can't drive), but she calls almost every day.
This not wanting to talk to Nana issue started maybe about 6 months ago with us having to coax her into talking on the phone - but that was happening with both my parents and Nana. She now loves to talk to Grammie and Grampy (who only live 20 minutes away and see her all the time), but as soon as we pick up the phone and say, "Hi Nana," she covers her ears and scrunches down on the couch or runs away - we have to threaten her (no Toy Story tonight) to get her to just say a few words. This big change occurred after Nana spent Christmas week at our house in an attempt to get them to connect, which just went so bad - she didn't even want to play with Nana. Nana is 80 years old and is EXTREMELY sensitive - she thinks her granddaughter hates her. We just don't know what to do!
