[quote=Anonymous]I have two teen sons who are really into football. It’s s on all the time in my house. I joined a fantasy football team this year with them. I figured if you can’t beat them, join them. It’s more interesting when I’m somewhat invested in the outcome and they’ve been helping me with my picks. But to answer your question: with one son right now, I talk about music, philosophy/school, relationships. With the other, fishing, camping and funny animal memes. With both: food/cooking, their sport, travel. The key has been embracing their interests. I’ve gained an appreciation of fishing YouTube videos and have planned all kinds of outdoors trips with that kid. Other kid and I plan other travel and restaurants outings together. My sister jokes that I’ve become a total “boy mom” with my interests but I honestly enjoy learning anbout what they anre into, even if I did not have these interests pre-kids.[/quote]
