[quote=Anonymous]If you have to add tutoring to the list of activities then you've gone too far. Activities should never interfere with school work and adequate sleep. I had an amusing conversation with a middle school parent who was complaining that her son's baseball schedule was making him fall behind in school and that she had to take him to Kumon. I was like, why don't you drop down to a rec league or pause sports. Some parents think sports is the only way to get admitted to college and forget that grades matter for everyone unless they are some 1 in a million prodigy. (Her son was no such prodigy.)[/quote]
