How did your W 'teach' you? This is something I would love for H to learn, but my attempts have been poor. The kids are one area that we (usually) are able to discuss without any problems, but even me telling him how much fun we've had, or pointing out some cute thing one of them said, or what wonderful insight one of them gave, he doesn't seem to be interested in doing things together. Maybe it's because I'm involved as well. He doesn't seem to be able to 'share' them very well, or maybe I'm too overprotective where he's concerned.
He will sing with them, and occasionally play computer games with them, read with them, but doesn't show much interest in their own activities.
Already, the girls come to me first, and tonight, when H was in a good mood, and I encouraged S4b to show him some very wonderful pictures he drew today, S4b said he didn't feel like it.
I only hope my own actions haven't contributed to that too much. I fight with that a lot as well.
