I don’t have kids, nor do I profess to have any knowledge whatsoever about parenting. But it seems to me that kids need to assured that they are important, loved and that their parents are interested in their lives. But it also seems to me that it is important that kids learn that they are not the centre of the universe, and that their parents have their own lives.
Hypen, I reckon 2.40 Sunday would be an appropriate time for your kids to learn that distinction. You basically owe it to them to go to the game.
