[quote=Anonymous]This is an interesting post. I've been thinking a bit about activities since the pandemic/shutdown has affected us so much. It's been interesting to see how our family works when we do not have the activities to keep us busy. I agree with those who say pursuing interests is sort of the goal in and of itself. I think part of my job as a parent is to help my kids find out who they are and what they like to do. So for example soccer is not a waste if my kid decides they don't like it (or don't want to continue with it). It's just more experiences and more information for them to have about themselves. Sports wise, we are not looking to produce college athletes (or professional). Moreso hoping that they stay active throughout their lives. Also, hopefully my kids know that we will support them with what they want to do... that's important in and of itself. [/quote]
