I lived a short time in my 20s with friends a few blocks from my parents. When I returned to live with my parents for a short period the entire dynamic changed. You leave the house so you don't go to your room, you visit. I started talking more and listening to music with them. I really appreciated my parents more. I hope my relationship with my children will be the same.
- jimmydddd 27d agoWhat do you mean by listening to music with them? Like, sitting around in the living room playing each other's favorite songs? I don't think I've ever done that with my parents, my kids, or anyone really.
- Exoristos 27d agoMany such mutual activities are being lost. But I can't believe permanently.
- vorpalhex 27d agoListening to music with my young kids is a favorite. My wife and I also frequently invite other couples over to listen to vinyl and enjoy a cocktail or two. We like vinyl just because it has the physicality to it but I think anything here is fine. It's the music and the shared experience.
- hackable_sand 27d agoSitting and listening to an album with someone is a very nice experience. You learn from each other in unexpected ways.
- Gerard0 27d agoI guess most people don't sit and listen to something nowadays. I rarely do it. But to just play your favorite songs to your family? You surely have woken up to a song you remembered or have been listening and played it out loud? If you haven't, do it! Your family will love to see you sing, dance, react to it!
