A child experiences many new things and social interactions at school. This can be very stimulating for the child's brain and feelings. The child needs time to relax and process everything. This quiet period helps the child move from a busy environment to a calm one. It allows the child to mentally 'decompress' before they can share their experiences.
A parent asks their child about their school day right after the child comes home. The child gives short answers or stays quiet. The parent understands the child needs time to relax. The parent waits before asking more questions. This allows the child to feel less pressure and eventually share more.
