[quote=Anonymous][quote]I don't understand why no one would find playdates important. It is a crucial part of being a human being. Hell, they even have dog parks for dog socialization. You know, so they don't act like...well, animals. [/quote] In my opinion kids get way too much socialization, and not enough time with mom and dad or family. I am talking about kids who go to school of course. Both of my kids have been in full time daycare/preschool/elementary school since they were 5 months old. They also have weekend activities like sports or other academic programs with peers (well, the older one does, the younger one is still a baby). During winter or summer breaks, it's camp, basically a giant play date. If anything, I worry that I don't have enough time to be an important influence in their lives as they grow. I absolutely do not worry that they lack socialization and will act like animals. [/quote]
