My 5yo son participates 3 times a week in after school activities such as sports and martial arts . The rest of the week and weekend he does not have anything because I want him to have free time and be with us. When I first enrolled him in soccer he hated it and never wanted to go but I took him anyway and encouraged him to play and now he likes it very much. With martial arts, at the beginning he loved it but now he does not because he said he gets hurt.
Should I pull my daughter out of Girl Scouts or stick with it?
This afternoon we had our 2nd Girl Scout meeting. It’s about 15 girls and moms that I don’t really know (combo of K & 1st graders). I told my daughter before the meeting that her vest may look a little different than the other girls as her yellow flag pin hadn’t arrived. When we got there and it was time for all the moms to pin a gold pin on the yellow flag my daughter had a fit and ran out of the room. I coaxed her back in but then she said “girls scouts is so stupid, it’s so boring, all we do is draw. I hate Girl Scouts.” I was mortified.
I am tempted to just quit. Should I just pull her out of Girl Scouts?
