[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think you need a family reset personally. Are your older kids watching their K age sibling every day ? That’s not fair. Can either of you do anything to go into work earlier and get home earlier? [/quote]

Sorry kinder is in ext day — they get recess and play in aftercare as well as do red sports in weekend.

It’s just once you hit middle school — no recess, some gym, and lots of unstructured afternoon time. Sports at school were an easy pick. [/quote]

Why can’t they do sports after school/through school now? A different one than whatever  they got cut from [/quote]

They don’t like what is offered. I don’t want to accept this excuse; spouse is like whatever they weren’t ever going to be an athlete so doesn’t really matter. But I think this kind of fitness habit should start young (we are already too late, probably). [/quote]

I don't think it's too late. Plenty of adults take up running and biking as solo activities, for instance. I did in college after being relatively sedentary on weekdays in high school. I don't really think you can force a high schooler into daily athletics that you don't do, though. [/quote]
