Over the years I've tried all sorts of things - school sports, saturday clubs, instruments, etc My eldest 2 (DD 13 and DS 11) have gone to a few things but always end up losing interest and not wanting to return. They are now really disinterested whenver I bring up new ideas: scouts/guides, or a new sport they haven't tried and discounted etc, or something social and non competitive but i just encounter apathy. I feel so sad and disappointed and feel awful that I feel that way as I just want them to find something (ANYTHING!) that they like to do that means they have fun and hang out with others. It's that time of year when others are signing up for things or going back to clubs and I am trying again to interest them but feel like I'm banging my head against a brick wall. My youngest DD 10 is up for all sorts and happy to give most things a go even though she's shy, and has found a number of clubs she really likes so I don't understand where I've gone wrong with the other 2.....
