Well, they just want you guys to grow up well balanced. You got to see this in your parent's point of view. They care about you a lot, so they want you guys to be busy and active most of the day, instead of just being curled up in front of your computer. I have 2 friends with parent's like that (brothers), they hated it at first, but then they turned out to be great kids, they know how to cook, parasail (actually wee're going parasailing in a few weeks), and they know how to play some instruments. So you may hate them now for doing this, but you'll thank them when you're a little more grown up and realize that you know a lot more than your friends, lol.
