[quote=Anonymous]He's only 6 and in school and after school care. Maybe he just needs and values the down time at home since it's limited. This is not a critique, I'm a working mom with kids in care as well, and also struggle with this balance. Where I've come down with my now-8 year old is that he can only stand one activity at a time, but we need to sign him up for a sport and drag him to the park or hiking every weekend because otherwise he's just not getting enough exercise to stay healthy. So that's our current baseline but we're ok with him not excelling at extracurricular stuff, we're not making him learn music even though I kind if wish he had an interest, etc. [/quote]
