[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]At least your son is getting up, leaving the house, and being around people even if he isn’t making friends with them. OP’s kid is holed up in his room all day. Not normal. [/quote]

Not true---I am OP. You are overboard and making up stuff.  To clarify, my rising JR is a volunteer EMS in training for a local fire department and socializes and learns with others there a number of whom attend his HS (do you know how much work --both academically and otherwise that takes?) and he loves it; is almost an Eagle Scout (just needs to finish ES project)--has his life badge which is a step below Eagle; went to Scout camp in another state for a week by train and hung with scout friends; soccer; swims, he has sport friends; has tutor for math and Spanish; got learners permit last week; has gone on several local college tours this summer; is taking the hour long zoom presentations offered by MCPS and he Princeton Review about developing a college lists; the common application a few times a week. And, he plays games in his room a lot. He does some things with the other EMS volunteers; otherwise, does not hang with friends live --sees them at sports; scouts, school. Not really outside of that.

If you reread my initial post my question is about the time he spends in his room when he is home; I would like to see him more; he basically comes out to eat and we watch a show together several times a week.  A friend just shared some games she plays with her teen.  I will see if I can get some game play in there; otherwise I am gonna leave him be.

You all can resume arguing amongst yourselves now.  Sorry I posted to begin with. Should really know better by now.  LOL.[/quote]
