When he looks down, always avoid to talk about but later he speaks out. I prefer show interest on him without forcing to talking. This is about my 9 old year boy. May be when he grows up will be the real struggle to connect. Sorry, I'm not so good at english.
I am really realistic and I know my kids aren't going to tell me every little thing the door is open for them to be honest but if they tell me inly 60-75% I am not going to be mad they kept some things private. Everyone deserves a level of privacy even kids❤️
I think it’s controlling if you’re trying to force it out of them. But if it’s a trust thing and they do tell you I think that’s awesome and that’s what I would like out of our relationship
