[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To 11:31, you may be nostalgic of free leisure time, but you should keep your judgments to yourself since this is sadly it is not the reality in which our children live. As you mentioned in your post, most neighborhoods are ghost towns, and if I booted out my kids out of the house and told them to entertain themselves, they would find no one else in the neighborhood. So if I don't want may kids sitting around and begging to watch TV, I pretty much have to schedule activities for them. I do force them to entertain themselves for an hour or two a day (reading, playing instruments, doing art, etc.) but it is not really fair to them, (especially when they were younger) to kill 5-6 hours daily.[/quote] How will they ever learn to entertain themselves if you "have to" schedule activities for them?[/quote]
