[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We are mostly choosing a simpler life. Very limited TV. No video games. iPad only is a reward to use only Facetime and then only with relatives. Weekly trips to the library as a family. No other kids live on our street, so most time outside school is family time. We are both working mainly in the office, but luckily we also have flexible work schedules, so our kids are not latch-key. DCUM will criticize this, no doubt, but it works for us. [/quote] Bodies criticizing it at all. But it sounds like your kids are younger. It gets harder to live like this as they get older unless your kids are naturally introverted. At some point you risk depression if they are living a life that is very different from their peers. I feel like stuff is pretty simple with little kids, but with older kids and teens there are often no good answers and life is filled with compromises. [/quote] 100%[/quote]
