[quote=Anonymous]My kid is in 6th, and I think it's going great. She's an introvert who needs down time, and I am too. Some kids are fine with a busy calendar but that's just not how mine is. Having free time has meant exploring interests in a low-stakes way and she has chosen a few things to pursue more seriously. It's softball, track, and creative writing at the moment. If I had overscheduled her I think it would have backfired-- far better that she feels like it's her choice. She also has time to do a good job on her homework and at school because she isn't frazzles and tired all the time.[/quote]
