What kind of errands....
2007

Do you run on a daily basis? Weekly basis? Monthly basis?

I've often heard people say that they need a lot of time during the week to run errands and that those errands would otherwise take up their evenings and weekends if they had to WOH ft. It made me curious because I just don't seem to have many errands to run at all. Are we just lazy :-)?

I'm sure that's true. Nothing wrong with it. It's just you asked.

He's not used to a lot of organized activity, such as 2 to 5 activities at once like dogma's child.

Did I say it has nothing to do with it?

She stated way back that she doesn't have time to WOH FT because her 14 year old still needs to be driven to things.

Just hard to understand I guess.

Just because there is a benefit to tiring less easily doesn't mean someone who tires less easily is

Choose your friends by their character and your socks by their color.  Choosing your socks by their character makes no sense and choosing your friends by their color is unthinkable.

I didn't get the impression that there was ever a time he wasn't supposed to be on extra good behavior and paying attention chez Felicia.

It's just that I'm detecting overt hostility to my lifestyle choices, for myself and my children, from you and QM and to a much lesser extent from Lois, so I'm pointing out reasons that might explain why it's not all my fault that I expect Peter to need a while, energy wise, to adjust to full days.

And you can't think of any way, any way at all, other than DJ herself driving her child to all activities, to solve that problem without having to "sacrifice" her child's activities? Edited to add that I lived 12 miles from my high school, both my parents WOHFT at that time, there was NO public transportation whatsoever, there was no school bus route because I was out of district, I wasn't allowed to get my drivers' license until I had driven for a full year on my permit (had to be with an adult) and I can't imagine how anyone could have been in more activities than I was.

I think it's an incredible luxury to pick where you want to live in a vacuum, without regard to things like commuting distances and travel time to activities.
