He doesn't talk back to her? That's awkward. "Remember when dad would take me for ice cream and not say anything to me while he messes with the radio?"
I dont know what age the kid is, but i know lots of kids that just love talking like a never ending waterfall. Shes probably telling him every single detail of what happened during ballet class like it is a shakespeare play. And if you love your kids then you wanna hear that.
Almost definitely this. "...and I went over to the teacher and asked if we could dance to Let It Snow, but Becky said she didn't like that song, so but then Jenny came over and said she did, so the teacher asked everyone who liked it to raise their hands and almost everyone did so she put it on and we got to dance to it! Oh, and then, Becky even got excited about it part way through and I think she likes it now, too, so the teacher said we can listen to it again next week! But Tanya's mom came to pick her up early because she had to go to the dentist, so she missed the best part, and then..."
This is exactly what i had in mind. Thank you for adding to my comment :)
Little girls often like to talk. A lot. Kids in general at specific ages have a lot to say. Listening skills as an adult in this situation are important. You want them to feel comfortable just jabbering at you.
It's not just kids, most adults would talk this much too, and probably feel a lot better for it, if they hadn't had it knocked out of them and had someone they trust to talk to.
Aren't you supposed to be modeling conversational conventions so they don't annoy other people with incessant chatter? Some people never seem to be quiet ever and probably needed to learn to let other people be involved in their one-sided monologues.
No, you demonstrate love and unconditional acceptance and support. Today they're babbling on about something that happened at ballet, tomorrow they trust you enough to talk about their relationships and teachers and the bully at school.
Kids have enough time in their day to learn social convention - they also just need a safe environment to unpack everything with their parents.
Having an engineer for a father, yes, I remember. It always ended with "Car Talk." /s
"DON'T DRIVE LIKE MY BROTHA"
Kids are honestly a vomitorium, though. They want to be listened to. IMO, the time for your input is when they ask for it, which is still often. The generational gap makes things just as awkward as not speaking.
Edit: This comment chain got really toxic for some reason
Kids are an entrance or exit passage in an ancient Roman amphitheatre or theatre?
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vomitorium
Metaphorically, yes. They let a lot of things out. That's why it's called that. It means ""to spew forth. " (that's in your link)
People used to think it was a place where people vomited.
Aactually, it doesn't, but good of you to actually open the link and have a butcher's. "Vomere" means "to spew forth". "Vomitorium" is "vomere" + -"orium", meaning "place of."
Yes, it is in the link, I know. That's how I know you took a look.
Derives from vomere, "to spew forth"
You replying implies a certain level of caring. Positive or negative, doesn't matter.
Clearly some people were bothered. (👁 ͜ʖ👁)
When someone says “no one cares” it usually means you’re just being annoying.
Oh no, really? I had absolutely no idea. Good of you to care enough about the thread to post that reply.
No one cares dude. Go bother a plant or something.
is "bother a plant" the new touch grass?
Actually some people do care. I care. I quite like these sorts of threads. Please don't presume to speak for everyone.
Oh fuck off
Why don't you?
Hard to accept being wrong, so you have to disagree out of principle?
I already feel like I'm talking to one, so no need. See, if you didn't care about this thread on some level, you simply wouldn't reply. Caring need not be positive. As long as you reply, you care, one way or the other. <3
Wonderful. No one cares.
Lying won't change the facts, friend
You care. :)
yes, they go in and come out of the same place
But if they are the passage, then you'd be entering and exiting children, and that just sounds... wrong.
