[quote=Anonymous]Op again- maybe the example I gave was too extreme. What about- say- a trip to a grocery store. Granted I’m not packing a sandwich on a trip to the grocery store, but I still feel like I need to “set my kid up for success” if I’m doing any serious grocery shopping. So, for example I wouldn’t take him after daycare pickup. I’d wait until a nice weekend morning, after breakfast, and it would be the only activity (so we wouldn’t go, like, after his karate class). When can you be a more more spontaneous and less planned about something like a trip to the store or the mall or waiting at a doctor’s office or planning to eat at a restaurant? We do all of these things with relative success, but in the back of my mind I’m always praying my child will behave and in the front of my mind I’m always thinking about what he needs in order to keep him on track.
