[quote=Anonymous]My middle schooler played 4 sports, sang in a choir, participated in technical theater, did filmmaking, and volunteered. But he still wasn't spending 3 hours a night, 5 nights a week on activities except for a brief period of about 3 weeks each fall when his most intensive sport (3 practices and 2 game a week) overlapped with preparations for the school play. Other than that, things were staggered, so football and soccer stopped before choir practice ramped up. Filmmaking was mostly summer camps and weekend short courses, and we scheduled those when other things were light. In addition, much of his theater, and filmmaking and all of his choir practices were at his middle school so there was zero commute. [/quote]
