Me n the Mr are having exchanges of thoughts at the min on whatsapp.

His nephew is annoying him, I asked can he not go out to play? The ass was... It is Sunday... I obvi know this, but he seems along with parents along his mums road in London, that you keep the kids in on a Sunday!

1, this heat, if protected, they should b out enjoying it

2, cooking the family Sunday lunch whatever your making etc, it gets em out from under yer feet

3, better than having them stuck on consoles or tv....

Fair enough, if u go to church, have family round etc, I mean general Sundays. Is today not a normal day for kids to be kids n enjoy the sunshine?

little house on the praire

Its a generation thing, we where out sundays, but i know my mums generation had to stay in and sunday was the day they where "allowed" to play with their best toy. But that was in the days the televison shut down so everyone could go to church.

Even if a child is protected from the sun with suncream etc i think sometimes it just can be simply too hot to be out. id prefer to avoid the hottest period of the day and wait til it cools down

Titch is off swimming with his friends. Sundays are for unwinding and enjoying his time away from school routine.

When I had kids at home I wouldn't let them go out until after 10 on Sunday morning so people could have a quiet lay in, after that they could go and play all they liked. Kids need sunshine and fun, too many don't see the light of day due to TV and computer games.

I was never allowed out to play on Sundays. The only place I was allowed to go was Sunday School and to my Grandparents. but playing in the street was a big no no.

It never did me any harm either .....

Lol when I was wee, my brothers n I were called in for T n sent back out. Pretty much rain, hail, sleet or snow. My garden personally, has trees so if they chose to sit under for shade fair enough. It is warm out there, but I agree with others about making most of it, as long as plenty to drink an suncream an a wee spell indoors every so often to get out of it. I used to have a static down Selsey bay n as soon as it was 10am that was it, off to the park lol!

My eldest daughter is of age where she goes off with friends often for the day, pure bliss, where as my youngest can only stay in the garden as she knows no danger and would be perfectly happy standing in the middle of the road flapping at the cars. Every other weekend i get to myself and i enjoy it to the full....

When i was a youngster back in the 60's me and my siblings were made to go to Sunday School which we hated with a passion lol ..... And the best part of Sunday for me was having tea with my grandad because i was the eldest grandchild i was allowed to sit next to him

Yup yup, we have grabbed chippies n sat on picnic blankets all over the new forest, road sides n where ever we have been visiting lol. The local park last week then playing for an hour in the cooler evening, after visiting a friend for a few hours. Not the same I know lol, but still...

Indeedy.... Kids are allowed their opinions to be heard and given such a prominent say over everything these days too tho, so it is very hard at times... My princess is 7, I have it all already with attitude etc.... If she cannot be arsed, it is unlikely I can force an issue.
