What happened?

Oh. I didn't know that was how it worked in therapy and I doubt my daughter does either. The family T has never told us that. One of those rules they expect you to somehow know, I guess. In this session, I believe my daughter and I talked to each other the most we ever have in session. We said a few sentences directly to each other. Usually it is just the family T speaking to both of us, or to one or the other of us. And then I or my daughter answer him back. I didn't know we were supposed to talk to each other. I guess we are not doing well at therapy at all, are we?
