[quote=Anonymous]I disagree about the board games - you surely can do them. It kind of sounds from your post that you and your DH don't really want to parent and your kids run the show. How sad. It might be easier for you in the short run, but I don't think you're doing yourself any favors in the long run. Maybe your kids don't need to relax - maybe they need to be active. Teach them to be independently active. Explain safety parameters and let them go outside. There are lots of non-screen ways to relax- a bath, journaling, reading, a quiet puzzle game. They can be engaged in chores around the house and in the garden/yard. They can do those silly bracelets on the wonder loom [/quote]
