Talking on the phone

Hotel california

Hi

Just wondered if anyone on this forum has issues talking on the phone.  My 14 year old hates speaking to his relatives on the phone.  When he does it usually consists of Yes and No answers to questions his relatives put to him.   Needless to say that the conversations grind to a halt very quickly.  

Look forward to hearing your experience with small-talk.

  • Hi you are not alone of course - it can be overcome by practice - keep doing it - me and my daughter are the same but now that we are Childminders we have to answer as it may be work - my sister used to get so upset as I txtd instead if phoned so I made myself and she knows I won't stay on long - we are all Aspergers diagnosed and have very different traits - Sylvia
