[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Damn, this post is straight up DCUM bubble CRAZY. She's SIX! She wants to play, outside and inside, not listen to adults direct her. That's what she does all day at school. Swimming, sure, it's a safety issue. Everything else? DROP IT. For at least a year, maybe more. What a waste of time and money when free play is better for her anyway! Use the money you're saving to buy some really good, warm outdoor clothing for her and you and take her outside every day after school, rain or shine. Invite neighborhood friends, too. In the long run, you'll be protecting her mental health: https://www.npr.org/2023/10/31/1209763238/how-lack-of-independent-play-is-impacting-childrens-mental-health[/quote] I'm a PP and to be clear I'm saying ONE activity per season that meets ONE day a week (not like a sport with two practice days and a game day every week).[/quote]
