21.I've noticed that conversations with my children have stalled to turn into something that I don't like. It could be my fault. I don't always think before I open my mouth. For example, my kids would call me to tell me about something that's been bothering them. Then, as soon as they're finished, I go into mom mode. I can't help it. It's my de-fault setting(默認(rèn)設(shè)置). "You should …" "You need to consider …" "Have you thought of…" "If I were you, I'd …" "Mom!" The tone is full of frustration and annoyance. The meaning is obvious-"Stop!" I am the queen of unwanted advice. When I get one of my adult kids on the phone,I become an expert on everything and anything, which I'm obviously not. I want to be part of their lives. More importantly. I want to prevent them from making mistakes that seem so obvious to me. I'm hardly alone in this. Over lunch the other day,a friend told me that her son rarely listened to anything she said. "It's like talking to a wall," she added. I know that feeling all too well. But I'm learning,very slowly, that talking at is not the same as talking with. Giving advice to children can be full of problems. Though we may see ourselves sharing the wisdom of our years,they see something else. They see a controlling parent who hasn't accepted the fact that they're adults with their own thoughts and feelings. They're not looking for any smart recipe because they have their own system and don't need your tips. They may not even want an immediate solution to a difficult problem. What they're really hoping for is a safe place to talk with a person who loves and supports them no matter what. Because of this, I've given myself the goal of becoming a better parent by being a better listener. It's not an easy task. But I'm determined, I'm strong.
