I'm with ya'll with regard to the 31 days. If I didn't hear from my son at least once a week (he's grown, has his own family and lives six hours away), I'd be calling and calling until I got hold of them. If after a day of calling I still didn't hear, I'd contact my daughter-in-law's parents (who live two doors down from the kids). I'd make sure everything was okay, and I would not settle for half-baked explanations if things sounded hokey.
Happily, my son is prone to calling every day or two. We have a good relationship (despite the fact that I held his feet to the fire a time or two during his growing-up years). (Or then again, maybe that is WHY we have a good relationship).
And I always talk to my grandson (I talk, he babbles). If he were suddenly unavailable for days on end, I'd be finding out why, however I had to. My son would find me, LE or both standing on his doorstep lickety-split.
