[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't understand how so many plans change late on a regular basis. My upper elementary kid is currently in a bunch of activities (unusual for him) and only one has a bit of fluidity to it. Even when my kid was only in 1-2 activities a week, it was rare for plans to change. Everyone's time is valuable...why so many last minute changes? But yes, one parent holding all of the scheduling cards is not positive for the whole family...especially as the kids get older and need to start managing their own schedules (which I'm helping my own kid do now).[/quote]

Yeah that part was confusing to me do, the OP mentioned swim practice 3 times a week but it's not at fixed times so are the children just swimming laps in a pool by themselves or is this a team event?

I'd recommend couples therapy and a mandatory calendar. My husband and I joke that if it's not in the calendar then it doesn't exist but it's true. And it's okay even good to take breaks from activities [/quote]
