"What is Doesn’t listen?" is when someone doesn’t pay attention to what you’re saying, like your friend keeps playing with their toys instead of hearing your story.
Imagine you're telling a big, exciting tale about dragons and treasure. You say, “Then the dragon flew away!" But your friend just keeps stacking blocks, not even looking at you. That’s "Doesn’t listen." They’re still doing something else, their mind is somewhere else, like in a different room.
What it feels like
When someone doesn’t listen, it can feel like you're shouting into the wind. You might say something important, but they don’t get it because they were thinking about something completely different, like their lunch or their favorite game.
It’s like when you’re trying to explain how to build a tower with blocks, but your brother is already building his own tower next to you. He doesn’t listen because he's too busy with his fun.
But if they do listen, it feels like the best kind of teamwork, like you're both in the same story together!
