[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I grew up middle class but had parents who provided me with opportunities to cultivate hobbies and activities that are typically considered UMC. I play tennis, ski, golf, played piano, etc. I have two teen boys who are not interested in learning any of those things. We can’t go on ski trips because they don’t want to learn to ski or snowboard. They don’t want to do any of those activities as a family. All they want to do is play video games. I’m so disappointed that we’re trying to give them opportunities to learn to do things that may come in handy in the future and they don’t want any part of it. Can anyone else relate?[/quote] Our kid was in ski lessons by age4’ish. Dc would be in ski school while DH skied. Ditto ice skating. And lots of other things. Waiting u til teen ages is probably too late bc now you have a power struggle. [/quote]
