[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The kids operate as well resourced orphans. That works for easy calm kids, not for wild kids. [/quote] I have a different take. I think I am less able to helicopter & micromanage them so it’s better for their personal growth. [/quote] I agree with this to an extent. In a healthy way you can’t obsess as much. On the other hand by your third you know a lot more (you can see around the corner because you’ve done it with other kids) and are much more confident. You know the activities and summer camps that will work, you know to send them in with snow pants before it snows, you know who to reach out to in order to sign them up for the weekend field hockey clinics or Girl Scouts or whatever. You know the preschool teachers, the head of the preschool, the most convenient birthday venues, fun activities that help with fine motor skills, which swim teacher is the best, etc etc [/quote]
