[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm with you OP. So hard for kids to have spontaneous play dates on weekends bc kids as young as 5 are so over scheduled! Like hello please stop freaking out about your kids resume and start letting them have a childhood[/quote] Being in activities and not available to entertain your kids is not over scheduled. Your kids are under scheduled. [/quote] To me this is the issue with this entire thread - parents making a judgment about other parents that just because the kids are in sports or organized activities, they are over scheduled and never have free time.[/quote] They are trying to justify their choices. They know it’s healthy for kids to be in activities but they are about them, not their kids so this is how they rationalize it. My parents made all kinds of excuses when we asked to do stuff. I will always find the time for mine. They are they priority in our home. [/quote]
