The key, I think, in terms of trying to limit your child's socialization time is to look at your child's overall schedule to make sure it's balanced; that he's meeting social needs, physical needs, as well as academic needs. Those are key. I just want to remind you as a good parent that it's key in today's globalized economy and in the future to make sure that your child is capable of socializing. You want him to socialize. That's going to be a key job factor, but you just don't want him to over socialize.
