Hi Larry, One thing that might help is asking for more specific information. If you ask your son how his day at work went, maybe try asking, what was the best thing that happened at work today, or the worst, or the funniest. It will narrow the focus, reduce the amount of information you're receiving and maybe stand out because it's a superlative -therefore memorable. I worked in Huma Resources for years and that's a technique employed in Behavior Descriptive Interviewing. Best, tsc.
