Distractions

Part 1:Some times when your at home trying to have a conversation with a friend or work associate and your kids just won't stop talking all you want is a distraction for them. Am i right? Well here are some idea's before hand. You should ask what they like or what they like to watch. If you know that then get them some toys or put it on their favorite Disney channel movie. What ever the case may be if they are bothering you, getting in your way, and
just won't stop talking, most likely they don't like what they have or you don't give themenough attention.

Part 2: When your having fun playing or talking to your son or daughter and suddenly you get
a phone call, do you answer? I think that it is ok to answer if it is an emergency. Or to tell
said person you will call them back. A senario here is say your playing on the X-Box with
your son, your right in the middle of a race on the second to last lap when your phone rings
so you press pause and answer the phone. Remember your kid is waiting to finish the big race.
So say it is one of your friends and you say "Yeah yeah i have time to talk". And then spend
a while on the phone while your son is sitting there waiting for you to get off the phone.
So finally an hour later you come in the room and say "Son what are you doing?" and your son
looks up at you and says "Well i was waiting for you!" That is a disappointment for them
and now they don't want to play another game, or talk to you because they know or assume
what your going to do in the middle of the game or conversation.

Review: Distractions can be either good or bad. Depending on the situation. Take the situation
into consideration before deciding anything offically.
