[quote=Anonymous]I'm just shocked to read about all the supplemental stuff parents are having their kids do. My kid goes to public, and he has a bit of homework (math and reading each night - prob 30 min total) that he does by himself - he's in 4th. He plays a couple of sports - recreational level and one practice a week in the evening and one game on the weekend. He began playing an instrument in school band and practices a few times a week and takes one 30 minute zoom lesson a week. I pack his lunch daily - it's not a hot lunch. Maybe I'm a lousy parent, but I don't feel like I'm running around too much. I think he is getting a well-balanced exposure to music, sports and a decent education from what I can tell. He's not really into art, but he has it at school once a week. [/quote]
