[quote=Anonymous]Teens are 14 and 16 and conversations are about their sports and school. Occasionally travel. I just feel lucky that they come to the table and talk to us! DH isn’t much of a conversationalist and one of two kids is also really quiet (other is medium quiet). I have deeper conversations with them on drives and walks and enjoy the nights one of their GFs joins us for dinner as the two of us will banter. I grew up in a house where we had hour long candlelit family dinners. It was clearly my parents favorite part of the day. But all I remember from them in high school is being bored out of my mind and desperate to leave the table. In my now-family of introverts I’m not expecting the same.[/quote]
