[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] So does having a well-rounded kid who does sports, arts, etc. And one who can look other people in the eye, have a firm handshake, make small talk, and socialize like a normal person. My kid has learned that at the neighborhood playground and is doing just fine in advanced but not hyper-accelerated math. It will take him a lot further in life. I was super smart as a kid at math (placed in national competitions, etc), as was my spouse. Neither of us did the equivalent version of this that existed back then. We have four ivy league degrees. And we are well-adjusted adults who enjoy life.[/quote]. Picking and choosing extracurricular activities is for families on a limited budget. Above a certain level, you can have it all. The well-roundedness comes with spending money. Fluency in foreign language, signing and piano lessons, niche sport that top schools recruit for, etc…[/quote]
