[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The reason I'm confused is because some people in there were talking as if having dinner together every night, reading every night and playing card or board games, taking your kids to activities a few times a week, taking them out for fun or enriching excursions every weekend, going out to dinner a lot, lots of vacations, etc. would be categorized as "intensive parenting' but isn't all that just par for the course for UMC parents and has been since like the 80s at least? [/quote] What you're describing sounds pretty intense to me, although I'm not familiar with the term "intensive parenting." The part about eating out and vacationing a lot doesn't make sense either -- how is that any more "parenting" than eating at home and spending time at home. If anything, it seems like less "parenting."[/quote]
