[quote=Anonymous]Not a parent, but a child of parents who let me do my own thing as long as I kept my grades up. I didn't do any extracurriculars besides school choir, which only had concerts twice a year. And yes, I'm not super social or outgoing as an adult, but I don't know if that's due to the fact that I wasn't in any clubs, etc as a child or just because of my personality. What I can assure you of is that I wasn't miserable in high school, I still had friends, I graduated college, and am a functional, married adult who is happy with her life. Of course this is one example and I could be completely different than your child, but I wouldn't stress about this too much. I think the biggest downside of not being involved with extracurriculars is that I really hate physical activity and it's incredibly hard to make myself stay active lol [/quote]
