[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]He sounds a little lazy and selfish*, but overall his plan is fine. But there is a big difference between ECs and birthday parties. His preferences are not a reason for your kids to lack social skills, fun, and friends. *and honestly, this worries me in the long-term[/quote] If they're in school and aftercare 66 hours a week, they have opportunities to develop social skills and make friends. What they need to balance that is opportunities to learn how to self direct and to be with family. I would let my kids go to birthday parties of their close friends, and see if aftercare has activities within the program they can sign up for, but I'd be pretty protective of my weekends with that schedule. [/quote] It sounds lovely. But kids get up before 7 according to OP and husband sleeps in until 11am. So the locely family time is on OP for hours every sat am with boisterous kids. [/quote]
