How do I tell my family to stop complaining that I'm not calling them every week.
I live alone, and yes I enjoy it, but I love my family and I'm not a bit antisocial, I just hate making small talk and making calls for no reason whatsoever. But my parents, especially my mother, have been pestering me about the fact that I'm not calling them enough that I've become distant with my little brothers...etc.
Am I really that abnormal for wanting to just be left to my own devices?

Call them every week or agree on a schedule with less frequent calls. These expectations of communication are normal. They are compulsively worried for your well being, like most parents.
Tell them to fuck off and gift them a dog
I feel like it's going to be the same with me in the future, it's not like I don't like my family, it's just that I'm not that much into calling, or talking that much, so you're not abnormal, it's just a type of personality.
Maybe you should go visit them every once in a while? I'm talking like, every two weeks or so, maybe share a lunch or something, I know it may not be your thing, but at least they won't be so worried.
