[quote=Anonymous]My 12-year-old son plays basketball, now year-round except for August, and he also plays soccer. Sports are a highlight of his free time. His friends also play various sports, rec and/or travel, so they are all equally busy. We could not find a good time slot to fit in my son's birthday party this winter so I ended up giving him some of the money I would have spent at an over-priced party place to buy an expensive pair of sneakers. And, I arranged laser tag or gaming play dates with several good friends so they could hang together. My son's classmates rarely host birthday parties nowadays. The PTA moms I hang with at school all agree that we have come to dislike the large (over 10) parties because when we do have free time, we prefer to chill or hang as a family. [/quote]
