Dear Mamas: My husband always makes too much small talk, or chit-chat, with the teachers at parent-teacher conferences. We only have about 7 to 10 minutes and there’s no time to waste with his funny stories about homework. I always feel I leave without giving or getting enough information. Any suggestions on things I need to address to make everyone's life easier? Take a listen to this clip as Denise Vinson Arthur lays out what to do, and what NOT to say, during your next parent-teacher conference.
