[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I feel bad for these young kids having to spend their summerslike this. Such a pressure cooker of workaholic parents forcing constant structure on these kids who should be outside playing with friends, using their imagination, hanging out with parents, looking up at the clouds, riding bikes all over the neighborhood. Now they go to all day camps, year round sports, tutors, and more. Childhood is gone.[/quote] OP here, and I agree with you but most of us are not workaholics. We work. Period.[/quote] Yeah really. Do you want to pay for my kids to go to college? No? Then I guess I will have to keep working. But OP I pick my kids up at 3 (part time job) and my 6yo needs a good hour after we get home of quiet self- directed time. She usually draws and writes. My 4 yo is great and then has epic tantrums starting around 430. It's been quite a week. [/quote]
