[QUOTE="mum2JK&TH, post: 36676, member: 1784"] difficult child has always had difficulty finding things to do by himself. He always seems to need someone to either entertain him or at least give him an idea of what to do or play. husband allowed him to start playing a game on the computer which has become the only thing that difficult child wants to do. After this weekend and some upsetting things happening to difficult child in the game, I got upset and said no more. I don't like the idea of him playing on the computer all the time. The weather has not been ideal but there is plenty of other things he can do! After two days of sulking and convincing himself he has no imagination (husband could not believe difficult child couldn't think of anything to build with lego), we finally got him into building a puzzle which he's gone full throttle with. Last night was finally decent enough to go outside and he played hockey with his friend but even with that we had to give him the idea. So what does your difficult child to entertain themselves that doesn't involve computers, tv's or electronic things? What about when the weather isn't good? Are they capable of playing by themselves or thinking of things to do? Thank goodness hockey starts back up for him tomorrow! At least one night a week will be filled, lol! [/QUOTE]
