Parents: have you had a situation where your kid wanted to do something, you spent the time & $$ to do it, and they immediately refused to do it? How did you deal with it?
In my case, Kuno wanted to do soccer again. At the first class, 15 minute she in he said he was tired & didn’t want to continue. I tried to get him to go back out, we took a break, tried again, and then he just collapsed in a pile & said he didn’t want to do it.
I was *pissed*, but tried to be calm. We left, and before we left, I asked him if he wanted to try again, and if we left we wouldn’t come back. He didn’t want to try again. So we left, and I canceled the ready of his soccer classes. I’m not sure how to have handled this better, but it’s clear there are better ways to have handled it.
Advice, please.
