You don't suck as a parent! My mom asks *too* many questions, and that's more of a negative to me. Now I just don't share that much.
Could you maybe say (or email/text) to your children that you want to know more about their lives, but don't know what to ask and don't want to pry? Sort of an opening for them to tell you?
