[quote=Anonymous]OP, ignore the jackass above. I totally agree with you. I come from an extremely well educated family and when I was growing up the idea of doing a ton of extra academics outside of school would have been bizarre. Tutoring was for dumb kids who couldn’t keep up, not for smart kids who were able to thrive on their own. I attended a pretty good school district, maybe my parents would have felt differently if our schools hadn’t been good. Attended a very competitive college and now in an excellent career and I’m glad I spent my childhood doing things other than academics day in day out. Of course we did tons of sports/arts after school but this was driven by our interests and not for the goal of enrichment. I was a voracious reader but that was also self motivated. Renaming reading books for fun “enrichment” destroys all the fun, no? [/quote]
