Well pointed mate!
Allow me please, to share wit you my (us) experriences with parenting. If I understood well, do you have 2 kids (a son and a daughter)...the situation is the same here also (our both kids are under 10 years, our son is older than our daughter). Kids room as exactly your kids room (hehe), and our daugter always want to play with all of her toys :)
About parenting...we have some "rules" (or maybe habits)...almost every day we are playing around 1 hour together (all 4) some games like Monopoly Junior, card games, Tic Tac Booom, Boom boom, Rumini, etc...so some social games.
I think the key is to find some activity for kids what they like, and you doo it to with pleasure. For exemple, we are solving some math exercices with our son (he like the math extremelly), and playing with Lego. My wife draw with our daughter, and also learning some English (daughter mostly prefer languages the math).
Besides that both of kids have some weekly activity (swimming and wall climbing).
My ideology is that we must be brave to be different than other parents, and to "synchronize" the activities with our kids preference in such a way to serve the child's development.
I honestly confess, that is possible to raise (idk if this expression is ok...hopefully you understand what I want to say) the childs based on books...but EVERY kid needs a separately book :)
Thanks for reading & have a nice day!
Enjoy the company of your kids :)
Hi kurszusz!
Thanks for sharing about your family and habits. I love that you put your children at the centre of everything you do. I think putting our kids first will make us immune against the societal noise. It’s kinda like buying Bitcoin, regardless of what society thinks, huh?
I look forward to the day where my entire family can play board games like yours. Sounds fun!

Yes, it make us immune against strange things/ habits of our days... It is not easy to be a parent, and it is more difficult to be a good parent I think. My vision is that kids are the best long term investment, because we will know just after several years if we did a good job as parents. But we must admit the risk, and try our best so that investment to be a good investment for us, for them, and for society also.
Btw...our kids are really enjoying board games, because they feel it that they are parts of something (family)

Some Stacker mentioned how children and Bitcoin are low time-preference assets. It captured my imagination so much that I wrote about it here: #319060
