I think I'm a bit over protected of him, I don't want him to be in playschool for more than six hours a day, some kids his age are there for 9 hours, and they are 3 years old. now there will be summer vacation and I'm thinking of letting him go to a so called ball school that the local football team has for kids his age but I'm just very nervous ...
