One expert calls it “scheduled hyperactivity,” the profusion of required practices–baseball, ballet, band–that has virtually obliterated old-fashioned family togetherness. Now some parents in the affluent Minneapolis suburb of Wayzata are fighting back by asking coaches, teachers and leaders of youth groups to cut their kids some slack.
