[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What are your conversations like when you are in person? Is it just the phone that is throwing him off. Maybe you could try Skype as well (he might be able to read your body language better and you could have better conversations)? It's going to be hard for your dad to change his communication style after all of these years though.[/quote] Yeah, in person is not that much better, really. And Skype is the worst because he just sits there and hangs his head so he's not even looking into the camera. He says he doesn't like Skype (except he does like to see the baby on the video so sometimes I just let him watch the baby and there's no talking, which is kind of weird but OK) He has said in the past that he feels like asking me any questions about myself would be intrusive so he just lets me bring things up on my own. You're right that he's not going to change. I just find this very frustrating but oh well, it is what it is![/quote]
