[quote=Anonymous]My 12-year old son and I have a "tradition" of Saturday Mom/Son lunches. I let him pick the restaurant. Sometimes we take one of his friends, but it's usually just the two of us. He also loves to make popcorn and rent a movie or go to the movies. These are both things that his Dad isn't particularly enthused about, so it works for bonding time. I do love watching sports, so I also buy football tickets for the family a couple of times in the fall (Redskins or college when one of "our" teams is in town), and I'm the one who talks about his fantasy football team with him. It really does help to be able to talk about things they're interested in, so it might be useful to occasionally read Sports Illustrated. Even just occasionally asking a question about what they think is going to happen to RGIII (or even who has the coolest uniforms), or whatever, gets you all kinds of "Mom" points. [/quote]
