[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was born in 1975 and while I played outside with friends a lot, my parents absolutely played with me (and my siblings). Board games, dolls (mom), sports (dad). My dad helped me with math homework. I don’t think my friends parents were appreciably different. [/quote] You had good parents. I was one of five and mine never played with me or had conversations with me. My dad was physically abusive to us. It blows my mind that people on here are somehow pathologizing involved parents. Obviously there are healthy and unhealthy ways to be involved. That said, spending time enjoying your kids, playing with them, conversing with them are positive things.[/quote]
