[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Relax. [/quote] Thanks for the helpful advice :roll: [/quote] Actually, this is as helpful as anything else on this list. YOU don't prep your child for college admissions. They prep themselves. They do the work and devote the time. You are than the chauffeur, the wallet, the sounding board, and the cheerleader. Activities and interests keep kids occupied/out of trouble, help make them into interesting and engaged adults, offer opportunities for fun and learning, and if they are lucky, help them find a lifelong passion. That's how you should be approaching extracurriculars. Anything else is incidental. Help your child find activities and interests of their own. Do what you can to help them participate in those activities. If they lose interest, help them find other things to do. The end. [/quote]
