The REAL reason kids are over-committed

Ok, I swore I would keep a lid on my kids activities, but Maggie is quickly becoming the over-committed child. Here's how it happened: La Nina does gymnastics, Maggie wants to do gymnastics. La Nina does a dance class Maggie wants to do a dance class. Then, out of no where, Maggie starts begging to play soccer. As a long-time player and fan of the sport, I'm thrilled, so naturally, I sign her up for our local "Kids Love Soccer" program.

Tonight we asked her what she liked best. Her answer: "Soccer, Mom. I like to kick the ball!"
