[quote=Anonymous]Didn’t divorce. Went to watch their games, talent shows, class parties. Had traditions—-a biggie! They looked forward to these at holidays and summer and weekend breakfasts. Limited phone usage, social media/electronics. Tough, but loving. Both my sons were very good A students- but I taught them to advocate for themselves and I pretty much stopped asking about work or assignments in middle school. My spouse and I are athletic. My kids played sports and all of us get outside and move. Grandparents were involved-came to their games. They had sleepovers once a month, etc. Taught empathy, compassion, honesty and giving back. Chores. Family dinners (or breakfast in the busy years). They saw an equal partnership- both parents work and both chipped in equally at home. [/quote]
