In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Create quality family time and encourage conversation during dinner.  Ask everyone to turn off their cellphones or leave them in another room. That way, you can all focus your attention on the dinner conversation. Think of a few questions for everyone at the table to answer, and avoid judging the replies. Focus on topics like: the events of everyone’s day, future plans with friends, or comments on the meal. Go for “neutral” topics that won’t lead to a conflict or a fight. Try to get to know your teen as a person. Ask them about television shows they’re watching right now, or books they’re reading. Share your own favorite shows or books. Another tactic at the dinner table you can try is to ask your teen about the highlight of their day. It could be as simple as a good test score or a funny joke a friend told during lunch. Or it could relate to current news, like the landing of the Mars rover. Share your highlight with your teen as well. Listen to their highlight and don’t interrupt them. If you’re spending a lot of time in the car with your teen as their designated chauffeur, make the most of the driving time and use it to talk. For some drivers, talking in the car can be distracting. So focus more on introducing topics of conversation and then listening to your teen’s responses. Try to keep the conversation natural and open. You could comment on your immediate surroundings (“Did you see that guy make that left turn?” “This traffic light is taking forever, huh?”). Or you could focus on basic topics of conversation like your teens plans for the night, or what time they need a ride home. Watch the nightly news together and chat during the commercials. If you’re both into a show on Netflix, pause between episodes. Recap what just happened in the last scene or your thoughts on what will happen in the next episode. This will give you and your teen something in common to discuss and will likely lead to natural banter between the two of you. Short bursts of communication are a good way to get a quiet teen to talk. Some teens find it easier to talk at night. Knock on their door and ask if they have time for a talk. Sit with them in their room and ask them about their day before they go to bed.  Another way to start a conversation at night is to greet your teen after a night out and offer them a snack. This will show them that you are available for a chat about their night. After time with their friends, your teen may let their guard down and share more with you. Try a conversation starter like: “So, how was your night?” or “You looked so great when you went out. How did it go?” Or, “It was nice to meet your friend when she picked you up. Where did you guys end up tonight?” Avoid interrogating your teen. Try not to act aggressive or ask them where they’ve been all night long. Waiting up for them and pouncing on them as soon as they get through the door will likely only turn them off or make them less willing to talk. Offering them a snack or dessert when they get home will seem more casual and open.
Summary: Start a conversation at the dinner table. Use time in the car for a conversation. Start a conversation during a commercial break. Chat at night before bed.

Problem: Article: Never throw the ball straight ahead, unless there are no defenders or pressure (like deep in your own defensive half). Think about it -- a throw-in is a high, slow, and predictable pass, one that is easily read and picked off. Furthermore, your teammate will receive the ball facing the worst possible direction -- the sideline. The chances of an error or, even worst, getting picked off, are compounded by the fact that the defense running after the ball is heading right towards your goal.
Summary:
Never throw the ball in directly in front of you, or "square" to the field.
