[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't consider an hour at tr bounce house quality time. Being around to have a conversation with my kid about a problem they are having or answering a hard question or helping them to learn a new skill - that I consider quality time.  [/quote]

So taking a child to an enjoyable, shared experience isn't quality time?  What if I take my kid to the beach?  Fishing?  A water park?  Disney?

I'm curious how old your kids are because if having a conversation is a requisite for quality time, you can write off ages 12-15 right now. [/quote]

As I'd mentioned, it's not so much WHAT you do,
but HOW you do it.

To that I'll add, you need to be meeting 
your child's needs on some level.

The better you know your child, 
the better equipped you are to do that.

Hence, what IS quality time with one child,
might not be quality with another child.

Well thanks for the advice.  Are you currently between jobs?  Guessing so do to the amount of daytime posts.[/quote]
You're welcome, but you don't seem too pleased. No, I'm not between jobs. Different jobs have different demands. [/quote]
