You sound selfish. Some kids thrive with activities and being busy.

Kids thrive when they have time to spend with their families.

Well RTO certainly isn’t helping with that either.

Sure it is. Everyone I know who works in person comes home from work, makes dinner and eats it with their family. Just like many generations before us. What has changed is wealthy families overscheduling their kids in the hope it will get them into better colleges. No wonder so many of them are anxious/depressed.

Its not overscheduling to have yoru kids in activities and its not just wealthy. There is financial help. Many families like us make it work. My parents were like you and very selfish. Everything revolved around them and their interests, not ours. I will not do that to my kids. It was boring and lonely. They didn't spend time with us. We ate dinner together but that was it. Then we all went to our seperate rooms.

Yes that’s me too. I really wanted to join swim team or dance team but my parents didn’t want to lift a finger to pick me up from school. My kids can stay home all they want, but they choose to do their hobbies twice a week, which is no where near ”over scheduling”.

My mom never put me in rec sports or activities and always acted like it was such a burden to pick me up from activities and sports once I got to middle and high school. She rarely came to my sports events. I grew up in a small town/city with no traffic and she had a ten minute commute. My high school was half way between her job and our house. She was just selfish.

So wanting to eat dinner every night with my kids is selfish? Wanting to hear about their day and talking to them is selfish? That’s really messed up in a big way.
