on the other hand, it can be very frustrating for a child, with a much shorter attention span, to wait for adults to finish speaking; and frankly, many adults ignore children completely. (Not necessarily parents, though they do it to). Constant interruptions show a lack of consideration, but I don't agree with the old style "seen and not heard" either.
Rather than imposing a "forbidden to interrupt" policy, maybe discuss ways to join a conversation, polite ways to interrupt if there is an emergency, and the importance of listening.
