[quote=Anonymous]How about having him help you do chores—you’re side by side and he can talk while you listen, but you’re also getting stuff done around the house that needs to get done. Outline the weekend ahead of time (we do this on a white board every Friday night) so he knows what to expect. Something like this: Saturday: AM laundry folding and bathrooms (mom upstarts, Charlie downstairs, dad basement); family bike ride and lunch out; quiet time (everyone in their own bedrooms for an hour); mom and Charlie cook dinner while dad mows lawn; Charlie chooses board game before bed[/quote]
