[quote=Anonymous]Really... you've exposed her to all the organized activities and sports by the age of 9 to conclude she is drifting and will never find a thing? I don't even see how that's possible. My oldest was the type of kid who it was clear what his thing was by early elementary school. He's in late high school and it's still his thing. Very focused and passionate. It's really his identity. My youngest is more the type who has tried a lot of things, quit a lot of things. In middle school now and she plays one sport pretty competitively and really doesn't have a whole lot else going on outside of school. Not even sure the one sport will stick forever. She's super smart and does well in school, she's funny, she has lots of friends. Honestly OP, her lack of "passion" is zero problem in her life. She "belongs" just in different ways than my older kid. You are having an extremely narrow view of how childhood unfolds. [/quote]
