[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We used to take vacations to the islands and Martha's Vineyard when my kids were younger.  We have a second home in South Florida.  We are selling it after 10 years because we don't go down as much and kids say it is boring.  Go figure.  They are teenagers now and like most of their friends are working and taking a summer class.  One camp each in their sport.  And, going camping or to the beach with friends.  Nothing exotic.  And, we have a pool too that they rarely use now.  This is what they enjoy.  I am glad to have time to relax and do nothing.[/quote]

I have two teenagers. You have described our life to a tee, except we have a neighborhood pool, not one in our backyard. I learned to not waste money on a pool when I had one as a single adult because the season is too short here and it is a pain to maintain. We are very much stuck here because of sports,  although we always try to squeeze in a big trip somewhere domestically. When they are not doing sports, they are online talking to their friends.[/quote]
