[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t ever learn anything very valuable, but I like talking to my kid about their teachers and their school. It’s just a little thing to remind them that you’re interested and invested in their education.[/quote] +1 It’s not a waste if you have the right goals for the evening. For me that’s getting a sense of what her environment is like so that I can accurately picture her surroundings when she talks about school and can visualize her teacher and get a feel for his or her tone, communication style, and presence. Plus even high schoolers want to know you care enough to make this about them and not about what YOU get from it. It’s saying “you matter to me so I’m showing up.” Kids like to know their teacher met their parents and vice versa. (Unless they really really dislike you and then don’t go)[/quote]
