Mm. With my boy it does depend how interested he is, and how many other people are being told at the same time. He can sit still for MASSIVE amounts of time when he chooses... the point being 'when he chooses'. I think it is something to take him along to for a few weeks and see whether he is prepared to listen for a while. I definitely love your association - my intent in sending him has nothing to do with pushy-parenting and it's nice to know that wouldn't be possible.
