[quote=Anonymous]I'm an everything in moderation kind of parent. The 4-5 days a week schedule + trainings seems very excessive for most 8 yr olds, sports-wise. But it's also excessive for an 8 yr to have an hours-worth of homework a night (it's excessive in 4th grade too), and then those same kids are inevitably also in some math enrichment program a couple times a week and also spending hours on their parents' academic "supplementation". I'd pick neither, but at 8 yrs old, excessive sports would actually be better . . . [/quote]
