[quote=Anonymous]Pretty much anything. I'm learning how to talk with my dad after my mom passed a few years ago, because I would usually talk with her when I called. We talk about the kids, politics (we're not the same, but that's okay), things happening at work, travel, things happening with extended family, interesting articles, health, etc. I found that frequent, shorter conversations are better. That way my dad remembers what we talked about and it's easier to ask follow up questions, like "what happened with your big work project on Tuesday?" Or "How was grandkid's game?" His memory isn't great, so doing a long conversation every two weeks means we're covering the same ground. A few twenty minute conversations a week means we're always talking about new stuff.[/quote]
