How do you handle it when you child wants to quit an extracurricular activity? My ds6 is very interested in everything...until he does it a few times. Then, "it's boring" or he just pitches a fit when we have to go. I enroll him in these things so he'll have fun, be with other kids, and be challenged, NOT to torment him. So, when do you say, "no, you're sticking with this." and when do you say, "ok, if you're not into it, we'll find something else."? We want to teach our son to stick with activities and not give up, but we don't want him to feel that he should have to continue something that's not working for him. Where do you find the balance?
