I absolutely agree with this. Physical fitness is just as (or more) important than mental fitness, and as a parent you have to prioritize it for yourself, not just for the kids. “Do as I say, not as I do” doesn’t work very well.
We also prioritize education, though, and have saved large quantities of $ in 529s for our kids. They will be able to do whatever they want in terms of college. I am also allergic to debt and would hate to saddle my kids with that at the start of their careers.
I’d really like some advice on what to advice my math-whiz-kid high schooler in terms of college majors and careers. Maybe I’ll post another thread at some point for all you smart people to help me with this.
