[quote=Anonymous]My middle schooler is at school all day (work), followed by sports or violin (work) and when she gets home and wants to veg out for an hour (play) before dinner, homework (work) and practicing her violin (work) I'm fine with it. The Ask Lisa podcast had an interesting episode lately about the tendency towards "optimizing" our kids like everything else in our life, and how that is not a great practice. If she didn't get her stuff done I would switch up the schedule but I think the natural schedule is more work before play. [/quote]
