[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kids organically found passions in late middle and high school, where they are now, despite having no or almost no activities until that time. Both hated pretty much everything we signed them up for when they were younger and we ended up stopping. So far it’s worked out and no regrets, even if we were always the outliers with kids who didn’t do organized activities. For mine, they somehow needed to get to an age where they really wanted to find things they enjoyed. Seeing all their friends engaged in activities also was a nudge to explore around 7th grade for both.[/quote] What did they do after school? [/quote] Why is hanging out with friends after school doing nothing or somehow unacceptable? Surely, no one believes that all kids will end up trouble makers?[/quote]
