I had kids a bit older, so I guess some of my parenting is old school. I like to think I’m more open with feelings than my dad, and my children mean everything to me. However, I cannot abide other parents who let their kids dominate and interrupt adult conversations. Sometimes it’s necessary, like if an infant has hurt themselves or some thing, but otherwise a child should not interrupt an adult who’s talking and, if they do, the parent should tell them to hold on a minute while the adults talk.
