“He talks constantly… but never seems to notice when someone else wants to speak.”
“She doesn’t ask any questions back.”

It’s easy to assume a talkative child is a confident communicator.
But that’s not always the case.

❓ When Talking Isn’t Listening

Some kids are very verbal—but not very interactive.

They may:

• Monologue about their interests
• Ignore cues that others want to speak
• Change the topic abruptly
• Rarely ask follow-up questions

This isn’t rudeness.
It’s often a sign of pragmatic language delay or ADHD-related impulsivity.

🔍 Why This Happens

• They haven’t practiced conversation as a shared activity
• They struggle to notice social signals
• They feel anxious and “fill the space”
• They’ve learned that talking gets adult attention—even if it’s one-way

💬 How Listening Can Be Taught

Children need to:

• Experience give-and-take talk
• Practice asking, not just telling
• Learn to notice others’ reactions

Dubu PingPong helps guide this learning through:

• Turn-taking challenges
• Empathy-based prompts
• “Oops” moments that allow for social repair

🌱 Help your child become a conversation partner—not just a speaker.
