[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How many activities do your kids do? [b] 2-3[/b]

Age/grade?  [b]HS one is in 12th and the other is in 10th[/b]

Would you let them choose to do nothing outside of school?  [b]No, we have said to our younger son, if he wants to quit "X" he has to find something else that satisfies the same issues that "X" does.  [/b]

What input do you have or rules do you apply? [/quote]  [b]They have to do something.  It can be one thing or a mix of things.  In total, they have to satisfy a social component, a skill building component, a leadership skill building component and a movement component.  [/b][/quote]

That sounds complicated!  (and tiring).  Do you ever want to just let go and let the chips fall where they may?[/quote]

It is not tiring, it just means the he can't count Pokemon tournaments as a "activity".  We are really only talking about one activity that covers all the bases.[/quote]

And younger is an introvert and needs to be stretched a bit.  [/quote]
