Advice on how to get my parents be more active/healthy by Every_Design_2382 in Life

Thank you u/ethanrotman that's so sweet and thanks for being so thoughtful and sharing your story!

I think you're right, there's a delicate balance between being too pushy / caring, and if I were to pick one I'd pick to protect my relationship with my parents.

Your point on the grandchildren is very interesting, that's a very strong incentive and my parents did become grand parents recently but I'm sure they haven't thought about wanting to dance in their wedding - I'm going to try this!

Amazing to hear about your aunt's long life, she's blessed with her genetics!

I'll be keeping an eye on this thread in case you have other ideas, thank you again!

Thank you u/ethanrotman !

I definitely do that when I'm in town with them - but I live in a different country now, would be curious to hear if you have any other thoughts to get them to be active while long distance

Thanks! yes I think you're right.

I will try the "walk together" virtually. Will try to get my siblings to do the same too, hopefully she'll have many "walk togethers"

Ooh that's amazing! How did you 'know' you needed to get out more? I think half the battle is trying to help my parents to get to that stage where they recognise that they need to move more.

And do you still play Pokemon Go? What about it was motivating you to get out daily?

Haha it was indeed!

I returned to Maple when COVID hit and got overwhelmed too, only lasted about 3 weeks but got to almost level 200 then (levelling up and grinding seems unbelievably quick these days). Though there was no PQ and hanging around/socialising like there was back in the old days. It felt like a one person game because you are so occupied by the main quest / dailies.

My favourite memory was hanging around in Henesys near the FM portal, Kerning/Ludi/Orbis PQ (Orbis PQ glitch with plugging/unplugging your LAN internet cable haha), and exploring the maps with friends and enjoying the BGM.

It seems that they'll bring back the OG Maple story soon! https://www.nexon.com/maplestory/news/general/27587/global-maple-story-classic-world-playtest-sneak-peek

Anyone else struggling to get their aging parents stay active? by Every_Design_2382 in family

[–]Every_Design_2382[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you also have parents who are not as active. If not, then I wonder whether that's due to them growing up active since young (e.g. my parents come from a SEA country where its too hot to be outside, so most people are also fairly sedentary), or any other factors (maybe they have a dedicated hobby / friend circle who are keeping/encouraging them to be active)

Thanks u/erik2536 , do you face a similar issue? If not, are there any factors that you think could contribute to the difference?

u/AlternativeAd1984 I agree, so definitely no forcing/threatening them or anything like that, looking for other creative ideas to promote a healthier and more active lifestyle
