We were at the grocery store and he mentioned something about a movie and I actually knew what he was talking about because I've been paying attention to his interests. He told his friend I was cool. I'm still riding this high three days later. I'll probably never be cool again so I'm savoring this moment.
Dude that's awesome! Knowing what they're into is like unlocking a cheat code to their world. Takes effort to pay attention like that so they definitely noticed.
Getting that approval from your teenager is a win, seriously. Sounds like you're doing the work to actually be present instead of just checking a box.
That's the dream right there. Staying connected enough to actually know what's going on in their lives is half the battle. Seems like you nailed it.
Dude this is the dream. My oldest is 14 and still acts like I'm from another planet. You gotta tell us what made you cool all of a sudden.
That's awesome man. Getting a compliment like that from a teenager is basically like winning the lottery. What movie was it?
