[quote=Anonymous]OP to clarify: It's a preschooler and a 4th grader who generally are into talking with us adults.  I'd say 20% of their time is spent playing amongst themselves, and the other rest of the time is spent talking with us adults.  They are generally polite and say excuse me before interrupting, which I appreciate - but it is done in the middle of our conversations and the maine thing is that it's done persistently, and then they start talking about something totally unrelated.  And no, I don't just ignore them when they talk to me.  I'd say I'm less "engaging" with the kids than the other moms but they are nicer than me  :mrgreen: .

I spend all day talking to my children, and maybe I'm introverted, but I have a limit when it comes to chatting away with children and I usually reach it by the end of the day.  I just need to talk to grown-ups for a while for my mental health.  And unfortunately, we can't just leave the kids at home and meet up without the kids, unless it's after they are in bed.  Which rarely happens.
