[quote=Anonymous]You have to stick with something for him to learn to enjoy it or at least if you don’t want him to learn whining gets him out of doing things. That’s pretty much the lesson you’ve taught him so far in life. I’d cut screens completely, get him out doing things as a family, sign him up for an activity and make him follow through. Start with a short activity like a week long day camp and work up from there. If you continue allowing him to act this way you’ll have a hermit teenager with no social skills that can manipulate you better than he’s doing now (and he’s doing pretty good for age 6).[/quote]
