[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I feel like covid helped many of us realize what things we missed and what things we didn't. Those kind of off season things don't add value for my family, they just add pressure and business and [b]reduce family time[/b]. So, I'm not going to volunteer to make them happen. [/quote] What does "family time" even mean? I would rather that DH and I are supporting my kids and their team on the weekends, rather than doing domestic chores on the weekend. Eating dinner, watching TV, going to the movies, shopping, visiting relatives etc, happen in as usual anyways. [/quote] I feel bad for you if you can't think "family time" could be anything more meaningful than "domestic chores." No, that's not what people are doing on wknds post-Covid, when a lot of us now have more flexibility during the workweek. Family time literally means all of us together doing something or siblings spending time together. Events, outings, riding bikes, seeing family and friends, etc. Not just structured activities all the time.[/quote]
