[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not travel, but I can't believe the 6th school basketball team plays three games per week during the season. If you add practices, how does a 6th grader have the time or energy to do another activity (like music or math) and still get homework done? With all these activities, when do kids even have the time to get addicted to phones and video games?[/quote] My kids had to learn to plan ahead. Usually in middle school, kids know when tests are coming up, or large projects will be due. They get as much as possible done on off nights or weekends. Things like music lessons can be moved to another day or take a break until the season is over. If all else fails, they are up quite late once in awhile to finish homework but is not a regular thing. They all still have plenty of time for electronics…car or bus rides, weekend afternoons if nothing is planned etc. [/quote]
