[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kids do both with occasionally. They'll ask to play tag or the ground is lava. If they ask us to join, why should we say no?.... Just because you don't want to engage with your child at the playground? Some days we spend 2 hours at the playground, go home shower and go to bed. So if we didn't engage with them there we literally would have no interaction with them for the day is that we work long hours.... These threads are wild.... Who would have thought people would complain about parents actually parenting their children?. [/quote] That’s not parenting. That’s entertaining them in the role of a child. It’s part of the expectations of intensive parenting, which is a brand new thing in human history (mid 1990s in richer industrialized countries). My husband is better at it than me. [/quote]
