No one's lobbying for their playlist, nobody feels ignored, and you're not the DJ. It's also quietly something more. When you and your kid each have songs in the queue, music becomes something you share rather than negotiate. You hear what they're into. They hear what shaped you. A song comes on and there's a story behind it or a question. Those small moments have a way of adding up.
