[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]With the exception of the playground, why did he stop? Weren't his friends around anymore? If he's a young teen, sorry kid, go outside and be a kid. A little older I'm sure hat there's a nin intense physical activity he might like.[/quote] Not the OP, but I can relate. Friends shift in middle school. The sporty boys stay active and the others drift to more sedentary activities. Sure, you can tell them to go outside, but if they don’t have others to hang with out there (mine doesn’t), they don’t want to. Becomes a power struggle and the lure of the screens and the games is strong. It’s hard, a constant source of worry for me.[/quote] Yeah, middle schoolers and middle school in general is an odd thing sometimes, and like you said the lure if screens doesn't help.[/quote]
