I've been doing some writing exercises with the older boys and I've run out of ideas so I need your help. Lately I've been asking the boys a question and then making them write an answer down in the workbook I got for them. Questions like "What do you want for your future?" and "What are the qualities of a good father/husband?". Questions that make them think a little bit.
So if you guys want in on the actions post a question you want me to ask them in the comments. I'll pick a couple that I think they would respond to well and then write you guys back their answers. Simple as that. I'll take a couple of photos of them writing as well and post it.

Kevin,
This is a little different than asking questions to have them write, but it might be fun to have them put together dream boards or vision boards where they cut pictures out of magazine or newspapers of "things" they want. The things don't have to be a sports car. It could be pictures that represent what they want their life to look like. Just a thought.
Otherwise, with regard to questions you could ask them, I think everyone had good questions.
