give someone attention
To be willing to give someone your attention or consideration.
Hear it in real life
Does your doctor listen to you?
Yes, she always has time for her patients.
My manager always has time for new employees who need advice.
The mistake everyone makes
Not: I don't have time to you.
Say: I don't have time for you.
When the phrase means being unwilling to listen or give attention, use “for” before the person.
