Join in the lament of parents everywhere: Back to school means back to extracurricular activities, and sometimes it’s all just too much. Catherine chats with Round 4 contributor Charlie Zegers, who writes about sports and also about parenting kids on the autism spectrum, about us how often they face the “two places at once” problem, whether homework ever gets pushed off the priority list, and how to know what we’re getting into with kids’ activities. It turns out that sports guy Charlie is not actually much of a sports dad—and he’s pretty fine with that. We also briefly revisit a past podcast on varsity letters and good intentions. You can visit Catherine’s site for more advice on managing schoolwork and sports.
