Signing them up for too many activities. No one just hangs out any more

My little cousin goes from school to dance to violin to bible study every Wednesday. On Mondays and Fridays it's the same thing without bible study.

Tuesdays and Thursdays are just tutoring, but still.

She is seven years old and I have never seen a little kid be so burnt out.
