My DS (8) just doesn't seem to want to do anything....ever. He has started and given up so many hobbies, moans about having to get dressed and leave the house, and seemingly has no interests other than TV, computers and Lego (and winding up siblings).
I have booked a couple of things for him to do this Easter, which he wanted to do when I asked him, but when it comes to the day he refuses to go.
He is going for a sleepover at a friend's house tonight, which he has been really keen to do, but just announced this morning that he no longer wants to go. Some ridiculous excuse about his leg hurting.
Should I force him to do things or just accept the way he is? It's so frustrating.
