[quote=Anonymous] Well, maybe he needs to be shown that it feels good to see something through to the end, however the end is defined. So it's your job as a parent to help him navigate this a few times for different activities, before dropping him in disgust. Have you already done that? Don't let him quit and offer an appropriate reward for finishing until the end of the year. If you see he's really miserable about one of these activities, or that he needs more downtime and is overbooked, then you should rethink his schedule. I have a child who gets very stressed when doing too many things at once (he has severe ADHD) so we accommodate that. We don't let him quit the couple of activities that he has, though. [/quote]
