@thecamryndnoelle: If the resources are there, there is so much more outside of just sports

Stacey Jane :

my high school coach was gagged by my dad because he told my dad I wasn't focused on just basketball and my dad said to him in raising a well rounded daughter NOT an athlete there is more to her than this sport. 2 weeks later my coach came to sport my theater performance

JSmithJr :

facts my parents had us in the band, ballet/tap/jazz piano and we played nearly every sport! It pays off 100%

reesesandpringles :

My mom let me sign up for auto body and culinary classes for extra curriculars and it helped me wayyyy more on my applications AND real life. Now she gets home cooked meals and oil changes whenever I get to visit 🥰

ajmcneil198 :

My parents made sure I had a diverse childhood. Because only doing one thing is why so many people get to college and spend so much of it discovering who they are.

Sondrianicole :

Yes! You want to start introducing your kids to all different cultures and experiences so they will be well rounded. It also builds confidence because they will be able to engage with different people without feeling like an outcast.

CutiePatootie :

I was in the band, choir, HOSA, and lacrosse growing up. It’s pays off. I can adjust to any environment. I can talk to anybody.

Queen Renéssence•𐌁𐌔𐌌 🏳️‍🌈 :

i was in orchestra, band, dance, i did flag/auxiliary for 3 years, i cheered, i did spelling bees, i was part of a bunch of different nerdy clubs (scholastics, some science one & we competed making things, i think i did debate) and doing all of that elementary-high school set me up for success in college & life in general

ityagirldomo :

The only hyper inflation I want to succumb to is pouring into my son

Jas K :

Being multifaceted also helps as adult when having hobbies and knowing what you like and what you don’t like

Colleen ⭐️ :

My parents said no to art school for me, but sure did have money for football & AAU for my brothers. 😩

Mimi | Lifestyle 🤍 :

Agreed. My son and daughter both play soccer. Daughter is in ballet and son does martial arts. They also do swim and trying to fit in music classes this year.

el :

I wanna be you when I grow up actually

Dr. TJ |Author|✨ :

beleza_negra58 :

Both of my kids just got into music this week. Daughter is in Chorus and my son is in Band. The band geek in me is so hype!!!!

Yo | Style + Real Mom Life :

I love this! My kids are not in sports right now, but they have experienced them. We take them to museums, musicals, travel to get experiences. This is very important

Nate Hinton :

Got to be!

Senianyc :

You're so pretty

🙂‍↕️ :

All this. My kids are only toddlers but they are in swim biweekly, piano weekly and visit the library and some kind of museum or center weekly as well. When they get older we’ll start adding more.

aaliyahbleu :

Before having kids, I made the mental note that my kids are allowed to play whatever sport they want, under the agreement that they HAVE to participate in a creative activity of their choosing.

anishasharae :

Yesss yessssss I did tap soccer basketball art

DESS 💋 | The Social Worker :

I agree 100%!!!!

Excusememisslady :

You’re right! Andddd you’re a former soccer player/cool person/ PA-C? I’m considering pursuing it as a career. Followed

Nrc28 :

Student athlete mentality. Yes I play sports yes I’m good but I’m a STUDENT athlete. He also does language, music, arts. I agree frfr. I’m looking for him a chess club. Them golf. Then tennis. Bowling. All while football is going on also
