[quote=Anonymous]I don’t allow my teens to “just do nothing” in the summer. That does not mean they need to be constantly busy (some downtime in the summer is great!), but they must be doing SOMEthing structured. Volunteer work, a job, busy with an extracurricular or sport etc. Something. One of mine is similar to your daughter and I required him to get a summer job. It might be challenging to find a summer job at this point, but I’m sure there are plenty of places she could volunteer. I would tell her it is required, & if she won’t find something, you will find it for her. [/quote]
