This is part 1 of a conversation that’s on one subject - the foundation lesson that I call the grown-ups are talking, please don’t interrupt. In several recent podcasts Dominique has said this is her favorite behavior. That’s a strong statement to make, so we both thought we should have a conversation where she gets to explain why she likes grown-ups so very much.
It tuns out we both have a lot to say about grown-ups. I get us started by describing the behavior that I call the grown-ups are talking, please don’t interrupt: what it looks like and how you teach it. I explain why I gave it that name, and I describe how it evolved into one of the core foundation lessons that I use to introduce a horse and handler to clicker training. We’re teaching stillness. Both Dominique and I share some stories that help explain why we so value this behavior.
