[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Don't push and let her have a life outside of sports [/quote] This. My kid's friends who do soccer have no time for anything else, it takes over evenings and weekends. Even though she likes it, I personally would consider dropping it for something less all-consuming. [b]It's important to me that my kid have time for other things. [/b][/quote] I agree with you, but it’s kid dependent. If the kid is going to use their free time for truly rejuvenating things (sleeping, socializing, family time, hobbies, roaming around and staring at clouds) that’s fine. But if they are going to be on their phone the whole time, it’s probably better to overschedule them.[/quote] Kids need to have a life outside of school, homework and activities. Will some kids not use their time wisely? Yes, but that doesn't mean you should treat all kids like that. [/quote]
