"When parents complain, 'He doesn't listen to me' what they really mean is that their kid doesn't do what they want them to do when they want them to do it. Believe me: they are listening to you.

Of course, some of the time, they simply don't understand us, they're not ready to 'get' what we're saying to them, like when I talk to young two-year-olds about knocking down other people's block constructions, but more often than not they are listening, then choosing something else."
