Should parents push children to take up extracurricular classes?

Extracurricular activities, yes, but only if the child shows interest in it (but you should not let the child drop the class after one or two lessons if he/she said he/she wants to attend, then he/she has to understand the meaning of commitment).The question you ask yourself is do you want your child to be made of the same mould than every other child or do you want your child to develop his/her own personality?
