When communicating with older children and teenagers, you should be sensitive to their natural urge to communicate.
Explanation:
Older children and teenagers have developing brains that have begun to have a complex understanding of language and thus are prone to talking long and talking gibberish that would make little senses as their minds are experimenting with language and require support.
So it is important for the person to understand this and address it.
It is helpful to be supportive of the kids and not deride them for saying things that may not be making as much sense to someone else.
