Why would you stop? Not quite getting that.

Welcome! Got my first taste of the FMA via Dan Inosanto.
How old are the kids? I have adult children and 6 grandkids 7 to 14. Non of my kids followed me into the MAs. They played soccer and baseball. Eventually, my middle boy and I picked up tennis, because we wanted a common activity. That was 20 years ago.
It will be interesting to read about your journeys. Honestly though, statistically, if you can get a kid to stay in the MAs for more than a year many would considers that unique.
