[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As a mom, I make sure to sign my kids up for VERY little outside activities for precisely this reason. It is soul killing to be a chauffeur and then sit through all this stuff. Unstructured time is so important to us.[/quote]

How old are your kids? What if they really love one or two things are are really good at it? Truly just curious. 
Maybe I'm just too easy. I have seen other posters say this so am genuinely curious. Thanks.[/quote]

NP but I take a similar approach. During elementary school the kids were allowed 2 activities at a time. When we moved to a new area, dd's Girl Scout troop only met once a month instead of weekly, so we allowed a third. If both kids wanted to sign up for the same class/activity, we would discuss and decide if we could handle a 3rd activity on a case by case basis.

Oldest dd is in middle school now, and can get herself to more activities without needing a driver. As long as she's able to maintain grades and not be a stressed out monster we let her decide her schedule for the most part. She's shown that she knows her limits and is careful about time management when signing up for activities.
