Not a humblebrag I promise - I’m really happy my daughter (almost 14) is so interested in doing so many things. But it’s almost compulsive! She does one or two after school activities every weekday, 2 or 3 lunchtime clubs, and has recently joined a band and wants to practice every day! (Have talked her out of this) recent involvement in a school production has meant missing several lessons too, whenever there’s something to volunteer for (eco schools, fair trade fortnight, etc etc) she seems to stick her hand up. To add to this, she lives part time between me and her Dad, so we all have to manage the logistics of remembering where her stuff is, and occasionally deal with her not having it. Her homework is beginning to slide (this morning she did her maths homework over breakfast) as is her music practice (she does two instruments but has basically only been doing the lessons the last two weeks, no practice) and me and her Dad are being run ragged trying to help her organise everything. The biggest problem is she’s refusing to accept it’s a problem and that we need to either reduce her activities or help her learn to get WAY more organised. So I’m now thinking we either back off and let it all come crumbling down (that’ll be mainly school results I guess) so she sees what happens when we’re not busy fixing everything for her, or we insist that she a)gives something up or b) instil some time management rules! A part of me is worried too that it’s a sign she’s not entirely ok? That she’s pushing so much... sorry it’s so long and rambly. I think i might talk to school about it as well, whether someone can keep an eye on how much she’s doing in addition to lessons. Any suggestions?
