I might have been doing that when I was really young, but learning not to interrupt other people while they’re having a conversation is something you should learn quite early. It’s just basic manners.

Never, that’s rude and disrespectful. Not sure why you’d want to do that to your parents

I feel like the answer to “how old are you” is going to add a lot of context to this question.

I leave them alone when they’re looking at their phone, unless it’s context specific like my dad browsing it while we’re sat down for a meal together - this means he’s open to conversation.

My mum however is insane about phones and puts on a big act of ignoring everything around her and then when she snaps out of phone time she fucking goes over to whoever last spoke to her snd interrupts what THEY are doing to ask “what did you say to me earlier”. Ridiculous.

I think people of our age are more capable of talking while phone-using or pausing what we’re doing to chat.

I can’t recall ever deliberately acting like an asshole toward my parents. I mean I did stupid kid shit and got into trouble, but deliberately antagonize them? I never even considered it.

I remember when I used to be around 3-5 years old I would act that way if my mum was talking on the phone for too long when I needed something or was bored. So this tracks.

My kids do the same, even when I talk longer with my partner in person.

Never? Or at least, never during a period where I was old enough to retain memories. Maybe I did as an infant; I don’t remember. 🤷‍♂️

I’d never even considered interrupting my parents. Because of violence.
