[quote=Anonymous]My 12 yr old got her period and even though young I feel like she's 16 OMG! So nuts. I'm hoping by the time she's 16 and an actual teen I'll be over this phase! And to PPs - I agree with the mom who said you really can't control the activities. Once they start at a young age and engage in an activity it's all in. You totally cannot pull them out once committed. Unless you never put your kid in an activity that was only rec, you're pretty much going to be overextended. That's how it works now. My bet is that the parents who don't feel overcommitted have kids either playing a rec sport or not doing anything or possibly only 1 music lesson at most. Even if they did anything in school, there's a commitment of play in HS. Travel teams are a commitment but I'd say to the mom that finds it hard, you're not alone but it's better your kid is doing something v nothing. I am 10000% sure of this.[/quote]
