[quote=Anonymous]Our DS seems so completely bored on the weekends. He is 11 and just started 6th grade middle school. He's got a couple of friends, but doesn't seem to want to hang out with them lately. He is happy to play video games, but we limit that to 1 hour on weekend days. He likes reading mostly at night. We suggest things for him to do, such as going for a bike ride, drawing, playing a game, reading, building robots from a robotics set he has. He usually says no and, if let to his own devices, ends up just laying around the house completely bored. I know boredom is good for kids, but there's too much of it here and not enough motivation to just get up and do stuff. He's not depressed. Just unmotivated. Not at all interested in sports. What are your 11-year boys into and what do they do with free time? [/quote]
