and then
I used to sit across from my teenage son at dinner and feel like I was talking to a wall. No eye contact, one-word answers, and mostly silence. It hurt more than I expected. What changed for me wasnāt forcing conversationsāit was showing up consistently without judgment. I stopped lecturing and started listening. Now, we have a once-a-week coffee walk. He still doesnāt say muchābut when he does, it means everything. The silence doesnāt scare me like it used to.
