I'm a 40 year old single mum of a 6 year old girl and I regularly host international students. It's mostly fine and they are mostly actually very sweet but Im always wondering if I'm doing it right and how other people do it? I've had no contact with teenagers since I was a teenager and ive NO IDEA what to talk to them about other than the most banal small talk about their families etc. They are polite and answer me but never initiate conversation or questions back to me etc. It's all a bit exhausting and after a few days I just give up and let them get on with it really as I get the feeling they would prefer to just be left alone?! They normally come in pairs so they have each other's company.
What do you all do/speak about with yours?!

AIBU?
To ask if you host foreign language students - how much interaction do you have with them and what do you do? Especially the teenagers? I'm clueless!
