force him to do that it's like if he wants to play and kick the ball around I'm there to do it we do it for a little bit and then he decides he doesn't want to do it anymore and it's like that's it you know I'm saying it's not there's no we got to do more or let's try this or hey do you want to do this it's like I'm going to do it hopefully he joins in a little bit when he does we're going to make it more like play and in a time of enjoyment and then hopefully that lays the foundation for

If you're a parent and you get on a fucking treadmill and walk for an hour or run or elliptical or whatever you do, and you have kids under the age of 10, you're doing a disservice to your family.

You're going to get the exact same amount of calorie burn that you're going to get for what you're selfishly doing that for. But more importantly, it's going to continue to build that relationship with your kid and encourage this healthy relationship with movement and activity.
