To have effective, mutually satisfying relationships, we need to hone our interaction skills. A key skill is paraphrasing. This is not about repeating the words you heard. When you do that you are parrot-phrasing which usually begins with “What you said was...” followed by verbatim repetition. That’s a recorder, a repeater, not a paraphraser.
