[quote=Anonymous]I am Asian as well. I don't schedule my kids with academic related, but I schedule them with sports or interests outside of school. There are no travel or competition/awards. One is book smart but social awkward and obsessed with screentime, so I kind of over schedule this child with sports and interests to solve the problems. Another child longs for more friendship and more time to play outside of school, so I schedule this child with activities that could make it happen. DH has asked me why I am not Asian tiger mom pushing for academic, well, I have no energy and no desire to do so. I feel like ES years are supposed to be fun and play, and I may gear towards to push for academic once they are in MS. [/quote]
