[quote=Anonymous]I think we’re pretty similar, though I don’t really think about it as much as you do. My goal is to give my kids a “90s” childhood. They do go to private school but it’s a Jewish day school and it’s really for developing their Jewish identity. Outside of school, we are careful not to overdo it with activities. Right now each of my kids does 2 activities outside of school. We schedule nothing on weekends because that is family time - whether we are home, traveling for the weekend, or visiting grandparents. They only get iPads a couple of times of year when we travel and when the weather is nice, we spend a lot of time outdoors. TBH elite college admissions nowadays requires so much to stand out -and is such a crapshoot - that I’m much more invested in other priorities. At least for my younger kids. Anxiety is so prevalent and I’m trying to do what I can to just foster curiosity, play, and joy of learning and reading. [/quote]
