[quote=Anonymous]Shouldn't kids use their free time for self-directed "enrichment," like free reading and research? I understand the need to supplement if you feel that the school has gaps in the curriculum (although that's pretty depressing -- I think I'd switch schools if I could.) But if you say have a kid who loves math, why not just let him get into coding, etc? Or just read whatever they want to on their own? At a certain point, don't you have to ALSO develop the values of independent intellectual pursuits? [/quote]
