Hi mjb, I'm not the best person to ask as I tend to bury my head in the sand! I just sound very vague or say something like "oh yes, he enjoys reading" and then I try to change the subject as quickly as possible. I also say things like "I've no idea, he doesn't talk about what he does in school very much, you know what boys are like".

As I said I don't think that this is the best approach, I just struggle to deal with it - people must think that I am really out of touch with my son and what he does at school!

Maybe someone else has some good quotes we can use when approached by the endless supply of curious parents?
