[quote=Anonymous]I will get fried but here goes...my rising 4th grader has soccer practice twice a week, Monday/Wed (he plays club),Sat morning baseball team practice (club), Sat afternoon soccer games. Sunday religious school and flag football. He takes a robotics class on Thursdays right after school. We do not do many play dates because he spends so much time with his friends already. Everything he is involved with, at least one of his best friends is there with him.  He also has a half hour guitar lesson Wed after school-that he does alone.  He is an active kid and does better when he is busy. He initiates all his activities. I will say we are a family that does not allow video games/tv on school days, never have.  Our oldest is in high school and it has worked well for our family because our kids have all developed interests/passions outside of gaming/social media. I understand that there are kids who need downtime and do not want to jump from activity to activity, my oldest is more like this,but for a lot of kids, especially my high energy kiddo, we need to stay busy. Weekends are mostly family time with the exception of a party here and there.[/quote]
