[quote=Anonymous]I can’t say. My kids have never been all that excited about activities anyway. The ones they did have they miss slightly, but they enjoy having the free time more. What I am glad that we did was institute a no-screen rule Monday-Thursday. I think, more than the no classes, this is what’s made it easier for my kids to learn to entertain themselves. Also, really, we have a nice sized house with a big yard out in the suburbs, and I have five kids six years apart from oldest (12) to youngest (6). They are playing baseball and having squirt gun fights in the yard. I can’t say at all what it would be like living in an apartment in the city with one child or two who weren’t especially close. It would be a completely different life, and classes with friends would likely be a much bigger part of it. [/quote]
