Fresh research revealed what Hungarian mothers desire for

Half of Hungarians usually talk to their mother at least several times a week, four out of ten even several times a day – He found in a recent national research of Yettel. This is most often done by phone (76%) or personal encounter (71%), but half of the generations also keep in touch, and one-fifth (and one-third of the 30-39 age group) often use video calls.

The younger ones share their joy and their sorrow

Those who communicate in audio or video calls typically speak at least 5 minutes. In two-thirds of the cases, a call takes 5-10 or 10-30 minutes, but a quarter of the fillers usually talk to his mother for more than half an hour and one Hungarian for more than an hour. However, when it comes to short calls (less than 5 minutes), it is slightly more common in men than in women. Respondents admit that they make calls more often than their mother, and the older they are, the more they are the calling parties.

And what is it about? Most of the time, because of general communication, we call our mom (« how is »); We are interested in your health, information about relatives, or discuss practical issues (such as shopping, administration). One third of the filling will call their mom even if he is very pleased – and the younger the respondent is, the more typical. A similar tendency can be observed for sad news: while the Z generation age group 37 percent report to her mother, with almost no one over sixty years. It is also noticeable that while one third of women share their sorrow with their mother, only one fifth of men.

This is what Hungarian parents want on Mother’s Day

Mother’s day of Three quarters of the fillings prefer personal encounter, but if this is not done, a third will greet their mother by phone. The most common gift is the Generation Z: here the flower still leads, followed by material gifts, but at the same. In contrast, the mothers responding in the research would be as happy about the joint program as the flower.

– Our mom is not just a background player in her own life, who is tirelessly organizing ours. He is also a protagonist. If our relationship is limited to a practical info exchange – Who bought in the store, what time will be tomorrow or do you need to take an umbrella –sooner or later, it will be like a banking administration: polite, useful, just no soul. Just as a relationship cannot be kept alive by discussing the weekly menu, it is important for parent-child to sometimes ask about deeper things. What we have never talked about or still has his eyes. Give room for not only mothers, but simply « only » people who can give us a bunch of flowers with our sincere attention «  Said Dorina Pető and Bettina Juhász, psychologists from the deep air project.

The questionnaire was also completed by Yettel’s staff, which brought results similar to national research: mothers are most pleased with personal encounters and joint programs that confirm the connection. Supporting this for the application of a mobile service provider Deep -air group Together with his psychologists, he created cards that encourage conversation that help deepen communication. The purpose of the digital cards is to discuss topics with our mother that are not mentioned in everyday communication. These are more like a theme starter and deal with questions such as « what are the three things you want if I could learn from life » or « what did you always want to try? ». Digital cards are available from April 30 in the Yettel app.

Research was interviewed by 1174 people in April 2025 with the help of Europion market researcher’s mobile and webApplication data (https://europion.hu/). The sample is representative for the Hungarian population over the age of 16, according to age, educational attainment, type and geographical location.
