[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You give him the rec department flyer and tell him he has to choose something. [/quote] And if he doesn't?[/quote] You take him on errands with you, like to the grocery store or Walgreens. You don’t make it a punishment and think of it as you getting your kid out of the house and off of the video games but tell him he has to come. Sometimes throw in something fun like lunch together or ice cream. My son sometimes joined a rec sport but often did nothing. He’s now 15 and has his permit. He’s always willing to hop off electronics to drive me anywhere since he likes driving. You can’t force them to join anything once they hit middle school. [/quote]
