[quote=Anonymous]Not the PP, but re making it profound: I think the beauty and insights come from letting your child lead the way when possible. My 2.5yo comes up with interesting stories and is very creative when left to his own devices, stories I would not have thought of. I often see pressure on parents to hurry their kids from activity to activity, which often translates into telling them what to do with their free time and worst-case, trying to create their personalities. To me, that takes the magic out of watching them develop. While I’m not always happy to follow my kid’s lead when he wants to watch ants for half an hour or watch sea lions at the zoo for much longer, I’m overall happy with this approach.[/quote]
