[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t quite get why kids have to do so many activities. Most kids are not going to be professional soccer players, swimmers, gymnasts..etc our kids have a really long school day, shouldn’t they just get to come home and relax? Hang out with kids in the neighborhood and friends? Aren’t we just stressing ourselves out and our kids by signing them up for so many activities? I mean what’s the point? Or are we doing this for college applications? Our kids need unscheduled free time to decompress and be creative. Just my two cents..[/quote] None of what you’ve mentioned has anything to do with why our kid plays a sport, instrument, or does Scouts. There are lots of good qualities kids develop by playing a sport, or by learning a musical instrument, for example—teamwork, self-discipline, etc. [/quote] sure but 7 is still pretty little. there's time![/quote]
