[quote=Anonymous]There are some differences between those kids whose parents worked until 6 and needed after school activities and those who were simply encouraged to try activities and parent facilitated it. I do feel like it helped shape me as a person, helped me define who I was, and was not. I did all sorts of things, but could quit if it wasn’t for me. So many I couldn’t list them. For my kids, I encouraged the same - they did so many interesting activities and it really helped shape their career goals, hobbies, self care activities, coping mechanisms, etc. - then again, we don’t have a tv and I was limited to 30 mins a day of tv growing up.
