    We went swimming today, and joined up in the gym. We will go every week on a Sunday, and I will go alone twice a week. I found it particularly easy to get involved with the other gym members in the suana, or playing with our kids in the pool.

    We had a really great time, we even had reading time by the pool. It was such a refreshing change from meetings. A wonderful day, and good exercise too, you know in the jaquzzi and sauna. No wonder I feel so worn out.

    Sadly my son refuses point blank to get involved with football or cantact sports. He didn't speak to anyone this week, but I have hope slowly does it. Kate xx

    Exercise is good for the body and the mind.

    Its not for everybody. How about individual sports like athletics/squash/badminton?

    Good idea's cofty, we have rackets and tennis balls we can play in the garden next Sat afternoon. I only see him once a week though. He loves athletics at school too. Thanks

    He is in a period of adjustment so it will take time. As he becomes accustomed to the new routine he will relax and may be more willing to chat. It may also be that he is happy to listen whilst you interact with others at the moment.

    What is important is that there is something to do and somewhere to go that does not rely on attending a meeting in a kingdom hall.

    There are some really well organised junior athletics clubs. Its a good blend of individual sport with the advantage of team support.

    Here is a link to a clubfinder data-base...

    cofty cool link, but calm down, I only see him once a week. One step at a time. He goes to afterschool cooking club too. But Thursdays is a no no just now, but I will have a look. If there is something on a Thursday that could be a long term goal. Sam xx
