[quote=Anonymous]I have a soon-to-be 5 year old and went through the exact same experience at gymnastics and dance classes. My DD was the quiet, focused type who lived for structure, and my DH and I are admittedly pretty old-fashioned, so the parents who just checked out during those classes made me completely crazy. I hear you! It gets better so quickly. Most of the kids figure out some self-regulation and how to participate, and activities stop involving parents really quickly. But guess what? My DD is at a preK-8th grade school and from what I see, there are always going to be parents who don’t care or kids who are in a different place developmentally. And some of them become drugstore line-cutters and awful drivers and jerks at the office, but some of them become perfectly nice adult human beings. Try to develop you and your kids’ quiet happy mental place now, because there will always be rulebreakers or apathetic people.[/quote]
