DS had an appt this morning at children's outpatients.
As soon as we sat down a lady came over and introduced herself as the hospital chaplain "just going around having a chat with people".
She then sat down and made polite small talk for 20 minutes until we were called for our appt. you know the kind of small talk with me and DS about weather/tv programmes/what school do you go to etc. TBH it was just painful, the kind of conversation with awkward silences before and "...so DS what hobbies do you like etc"
AIBU to just find it intrusive and bloody annoying. It would have been nice to just sit and chat with DS for twenty minutes without having to make awkward uninvited conversation with a stranger.
