Boost Your Communication: Talk to Your Parents! #shorts

Now, can you always tell your parents about anything that happens in your day? Not only can you, you should. In fact, let me just digress for a second. When you go home today and your mother or father, hopefully they haven't given up yet by the time that you're now in middle school, and they ask you, "How was your day in school?" Try really hard, practice this in the carpool on the way home in your head, not to say, "Fine." And then the next question is, "What did you do today? What did you learn?" "I don't know." "Nothing." "I don't remember." Try instead to think of one or two things. You could remember this Darcheinu class. This is one thing you could remember for the conversation today. And if your parents did give up and they're not asking you, "What did you do today?" Great. Go over to them and say, "Mom, I'd like to tell you what I did in school today. We had a Darcheinu class. It was about this. We learned this in shiur. We had an interesting thing in math class." Prepare two or three things. Here's what we did at recess. Your mom might say, "Wait. Do you have a fever? What's going on over here? All of a sudden you're telling me about your day?" And you'll say, "No, I want to try to communicate, right? We're in communication right now. Communicate a little bit more." So, as a side point, it's good to always try to make sure to communicate with your parents when they want to hear about how was your day. You could always tell your parents anything you want and you should. No restrictions on that. Anything that bothered you, of course, you should tell your parents.
