My kid has started to behave like a teenager even though they are still pre-teen. They don't seem interested or passionate about anything, even really fun things like skiing/snowboarding. Since they are small, they tried many activities (sports, arts, etc.) (in retrospect, focusing on fewer may be better but that's besides the point) but nothing seems to stick. At school, they are smart enough to pick up things quickly but they don't take pride in polished work. I'm wondering what to do to help them find something they are passionate about or really care about.

Make sure they have some financial sense and leave a decent inheritance for them. Beyond that, chill. It’s hard to not be swayed, at least a little, by what you hear about other kids in school and on the internet. I understand that. Lack of passion does not imply unhappiness. Not at all.
What’s the answer? Idk, I would suggest sports and time in nature. Maybe some meditation or introspection, but at that young of an age I doubt they’ll be interested.
