[quote=Anonymous]I think it's important for kids to feel boredom and know how to deal with it. It's a skill they have to learn, and learning it can allow kids to find and use their creativity. But...these are my feelings, based in some educational theorists, and they feel right to me. It doesn't work for every family or kid, and I don't care if other families put their kids in 6 trillion things or not. I do judge people who force their kids to do a million things when the kids are unhappy with it, but that's not overscheduled as much as it is not honoring the child for who they are as a person[/quote]
