Fast forward 40 years, OP on deathbed: “I’m really glad I did all that math with jimmy-jo back in 2025”.

Ok well now I feel like a jerk. My intent was to highlight that quality time is what matters, rather than “doing math”. But, you’ve all opened my eyes - activities are activities and doing challenging things with your kids is great for their frustration tolerance skills - hard things in a nurturing loving environment. Thanks all
