[quote=Anonymous]I have a HS junior and a MS kid. I follow their lead on what to get involved in. I will help facilitate. If they express an interest in something but don't know where to start, I'll help research options and present them with choices, but I won't force anything. I'll drive them places, volunteer as a parent helper on a couple of the activities, etc. One of mine is very well rounded - one season sport per year, one season in a music/arts performance, fill in with Scouts and a couple of steady volunteer orgs between the seasonal activities. Other kid is all in on sports year-round, and would revolt if we tried to force anything else. I would push harder if they were spending their days sitting on a couch, but they are both very active by their own choice, just in different ways. [/quote]
