[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's a beautiful day of a long weekend. Nothing planned - no soccer, no lessons, no friends in town. I want to get my kids out of the house to go somewhere, anywhere and all they want to do is sit at home. This is not the first time and I'm at my wits end. I even pulled out the "you could die tomorrow" card, but that gets you nowhere with an 11 and 8 year old. I have proposed all sorts of activities, including bike ride, hiking, canoeing, kayaking and I get nothing. Anyone else BTDT or have advice?[/quote] My kids are the same age and I am puzzled by your children's behavior. My children always want to be doing something -- practicing their sports so they can get a D-1 recruiting bump or money, volunteering at the homeless shelter, or selling lemonade/cookies for extra spending money. I often tell them to slow down and relax. Are your children depressed?[/quote]
