[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]Talk about first world problems...what's so painful about playing games with your kids for awhile a few times a week? [/b]I don't get it. Any intelligent or creative person could make it enjoyable for themselves AND the kids. If not, your husband may be super stressed and need to talk to a therapist. For real, I hope he can get some help and enjoy life (and his kids) more.[/quote]

No.  A "first world problem" is identifying not playing games with your kids as a real issue.  You have it backwards, sister.[/quote]

Np here interestingly having spent time in   so called non first world countries totally  outdated terminology btw, I witnessed parents and other adults playing with their kids. [/quote]
sure, but no child is damaged because their parents didn't play cards with them when they were kids.  If the parent is completely ignoring the  child, not spending any quality time with their child, that's one thing, but just because the parent doesn't want to play childhood games with their child isn't going to cause lasting damage to the child. Get a grip.

I swear, no wonder why so many people need therapy these days.

FWIW, I played board games and such with my kids when they were younger even though I didn't enjoy it.  We had time to do it.  My kids are teens now, and they know how much I don't like board games.    My parents, oth, were too busy trying to put food on the table to play with us, so I played with my siblings and neighborhood kids. That's how most of us prior to the late 80s grew up.

My parents are from a former 3rd world country, and I asked my mom if she ever played with my siblings back in their home country, and she said no, that was not a thing back then, and that kids just went outside and played with other kids.[/quote]

Exactly.  Too many parents today are spoiled themselves or spoil their kids.  Wonder why all the young adults today can't handle the real world.  Or, don't want to work, or still live with there parents, etc, etc.[/quote]

That's  a really stupid reply. Do better.[/quote]
