But that isn’t your sitch, so no use talking about it.
You do have a blessing to your sitch though. You and your ex live close, you coparent well. Be flexible. Maybe one parent can keep one kid during practice and the other can go with the other parent to practice? I think you guys have the capability to be flexible to make it work for the kids.
Did you consider your kids might be better off with an after school sitter/nanny? Someone to meet them at the bus, bring them home and do homework with them and get them ready for sports instead of paying for an after school program for 2 kids?
You are actually in a very good position to make the single parent situation work for you and your kids. Got to think outside of the box
I come from a town where there are not many stay at home moms. Unless you are rich in my state, it doesn’t happen much . We all make it work some how .
I agree, if a kid is miserable in an activity or sport, no need to force them to go. I agree with the follow through, your kid isn’t quitting in the middle of the season. And also remember, your kids may not always be like you and be sports people. My daughter is not sports girl. And thats ok. She is not competitive at all. She does cheerleading every year. She began tennis lessons once a week. But she likes the little clubs the school has to offer. She is an excellent swimmer but hates the drills for swim team. She did for a session. I’m not going to spend my time and money if she is miserable
