That is very interesting about how different kids act today compared to other generations. I agree that being able to listen is very important. Sadly most of us don’t listen as effectively as we should and are usually easily distracted.

It’s good that you recognize the importance in listening. That bieng said I would ask why your statements are totally centered around trying to make yourself a good listener, while simultaniously stating that you allow your children to exhibit the traits you have recognized in yourself as bad. Even simply instructing your children to speak one at a time, would help them to not only develop better listening skills, but also to develop better ways to express themselves. Instead of rushing to blurt out the first thing that comes in to thier minds, they might actually take time to formulate an idea and work on the best way to express it.
