[quote=Anonymous]The miss match between parents and kids is always the hardest. I have a kid that is an extreme social butterfly and has never met an activity she doesn’t want to do. Besides costing a small fortune and likely years off my life in driving stress, I cannot indulge my own antisocial tendencies. It’s the quality of friendships, not the quality. Your kid will find her people in college or grad school - there is a value to physical activity for emotional wellbeing/mental health - so don’t give in on that one. Something like swimming or girls on the run could work for her. Maybe a drawing class or pottery which is less overpowering sensory wise could be good. Chin up, introverts can live full and happy lives.[/quote]
