[quote=Anonymous] We seem to be a low-key family and I have some guilt about it. After a long day at work I'm happy to just do some reading after cooking and cleaning up dinner and handling all the household chores.   Even on the weekends I see other families out completing long bike rides, going on long hikes, or engaging in other active, stimulating activities. I just don't seem to have the energy or interest in all that and I'm worried that I'm raising a  kid that will  become an in active homebody like me.  Child seems very happy to just be home playing around on the Internet chatting with friends etc.  He doesn't gravitate towards sports or group activities. None of us has an issue with weight and when he was younger we did all sorts of concerts and activities that were stimulating. Now as a preteen we seem to just have become homebodies.   Am I dooming my kid to be a boring homebody or is this just a phase that he will dig himself out of as an adult?  What's my role in forcing him out of the house when he seems perfectly happy to just be here hanging around?  Most kids seemed completely scheduled with a long list of activities.  We are just hanging out  happily at home. [/quote]
