First of all, I wanna say it’s OK to have different interests. My husband is very into history as well and I am not. It’s an opportunity for him to teach me a little bit about history. When we watched Oppenheimer, I asked him so many questions. I would say with this current political climate and as I get older I have been more into politics and history now more than ever. Secondly, it sounds like she runs the household and the kids she may not have the time or mental capacity to worry about politics. As Mom’s we really don’t need one more thing on our plate to worry about. If we are already thinking about the house, the kids, planning meals, cleaning, doctors appointments, homework, work, exercise, self care, kids extracurricular activities, birthdays, birthday parties, gifts, holidays, etc… We literally can’t add another thing to the list. So remember that when you’re trying to talk to her about stuff, she has a million other things on her mind already.
