As a side note, my husband keeps telling me that there is too much busyness and parents enroll their kids in so many activities that they have no time to relax or read a good book.
Personally, we have set a limit on how many activities our homeschooled kids are able to participate in. Since we have just one car, this is fairly easy to do.
As do we. Our homeschooled children are all taking Karate now and with all three being at the same belt level, it lightens the load.
