[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Neither my husband nor I have any interest in being a part of this kind of thing because it would drain us and make us very cranky, but we also don't want to short-change our daughter or future children. We'd like to enrich our children by supporting their interests, [b]is there any way to do that without getting sucked into to the degree described above? [/b] [/quote] That depends on you, OP. Can you do it? The fact that you are worrying about this when your kid is only 2.5 suggests that you can’t, at least right now. Maybe you can use this awareness to work on how not to follow the crowd and just do what’s best for you and your family.[/quote] +1. Maybe you can work on making friends with families that aren’t spending their weekends at sports, so you can learn how others manage to do it.[/quote]
