That's a good question, and no, I don't do it maybe because I never stopped to think about it when he was younger (he is 24 now). But it is true that the more you run conversations with your kids, the better and bigger connection you have with them, no matter what the talk is about. Even now that he is older and it is harder, I still try to spend time alone with him every once in a while as I realize time together is what I enjoy the most.
