[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]14 and 12 yrs old would spend the whole weekend on YouTube and video games if I let them. They reject every activity I suggest, and if I insist, they get moody, it's exhausting. Yesterday, after a lot of resistance, we went to the zoo, a cool bakery, and Five Below (their choice). At home I suggested a movie; they refused until I asked for just 15 minutes then we watched the whole thing. They were rolling laughing. Today I planned a short nature walk, another bakery, and an activity of their choice, but the complaining started again. I told them I’m going and they can stay home but no electronics. They access to a phone for calls (no internet). Is this what I’m in for the next few years? Are there ways I can interest them without all the hassle? It’s so draining.[/quote] Your 14 and 12 year old boys don’t want to take “nature walks” with their mom. Come on.[/quote]
