[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 456880, member: 11791"] Would be nice if they'd expand on the "other such activities" statement - cop out! The reality of today's world is that if you cannot reasonably participate in organized team sports or equivalent activities (community band, for example)... activities where you are committed multiple times per week, and fairly expensive at that... then you are EXCLUDED from everything else in life. The kids are anxious because they don't have social experience. They don't have social experience because the only options available do not work for them. And yes, the lack of social experience and the lack of friends puts them at HUGE risk in school. Nice to get more details about the problem, but please - can we get some realistic [U]solutions[/U]?
