[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Free play is all fun and games until middle school. Then the kids with no activities have nothing to do and it’s downhill from there. [/quote] Yep, those are the kids who get in trouble. Just hanging around with nothing to do at those ages leaves lots of time for drugs and sex. I saw it among other kids growing up, saw it among kids in the same grade with my kids over the years. Idle hands and all that. [/quote] A full academic course load at a pressure cooker school is a whole activity unto itself. You must send your kids to weak schools. Nobody at my kid's school has time for 3 sports, basketweaving, and barbershop quartet practice. [/quote] You sound envious your DC can’t handle both academics and activities well.[/quote]
