[quote=Anonymous]You’re not terrible for forcing him to go outside. If he’s tired he could take a nap, not bother you. If he’s tired outside he could sit in a lounge chair and look at a book. I can’t imagine your nanny is forcing him to play soccer or run laps. I agree with a pp—dont placate him with screens: he’ll never want to go out. But you could reward him with a “time in” If he plays outside when you need him to, he gets 15 minutes of interrupted mom time with you. You’ll play any game and no phone to distract you during that time. [/quote]
