[quote=Anonymous] My third grade DS is not enrolled in _anything_ at the moment. He is not interested in doing anything - music, theater, sports, martial arts, scouts. I am frustrated - I feel like I am the only one noticing that he is depressed and need to get busy with something, anything. ([b]we are on waitlist for a psychologist list next month[/b] I try to get him to join me on a walk, a jog, ice skating, shooting hoops, bike ride. All he wants to do is mope around and play video games and watch tv. Not even read or play legos (maybe one in 5 or one in ten he'd do on of those things) Anyway, my husband is not pushing for DS to do anything and is happy to hang at home, go out to eat or shop. But he does not push for him to _do_ anything active. Is the the father supposed to be modeling the behavior for the kid too? I feel like as a woman maybe my role is not what is was when he was little. [/quote]
