Then... it sounds like this part of the solution can be boiled down to down to either finding books that prevent your husband from becoming impatient (Tolkien would not be my first choice here; I'd find something with lots more dialog), or convincing your daughter that his boredom/impatience is his problem, not hers. Or both. Yes? | |
| Dec 4, 2013 at 13:47 | comment | added | balanced mama | Just to clarify, it isn't that my husband isn't "rapt" with engagement, it is that he'll get impatient and take the book and say, "my turn" because he just can't listen to it and find the patience in himself (he does it to me sometimes when the family book is a fantasy book because fantasy just isn't his favorite thing anyway. He doeds it even though I do use dynamics in my reading (and so does Alice to a small extent) and also rarely trip over words). I understand your larger point though and it is a good one. | |
