Person A: My kid keeps drawing by me, but she won't talk to me or join what I'm doing. I she ignoring me?
Person B: That's just parallel play, she's connecting with you!
Person A: ..Parallel play?

Person A: Hey, wanna parallel play?
Person B: Sure, but you've gotta show me what you drew at the end of it!
