[quote=Anonymous]We did it your way and my middle schooler now happily participates in sports and activities. I do think that ample free play gave an edge up in leadership and self-direction, which some kids who always had adults leading their activities struggle with. They are worse at soccer, but never was really interested in that to begin with. They caught up in swimming pretty quickly to their peers who had lessons. They read a ton and are creative.[/quote]
