Summary: Extracurricular Overkill on the HIRL Podcast<br> On this week's special back-to-school replay with Fletch and Kendra, they talk about Extracurricular Overkill.  When is enough too much? <br> On this episode of HomeschoolingIRL, Fletch, and Kendra answer a letter from a listener wondering how to filter extracurricular activities into your homeschool. When should you say yes? When should you say no?<br> We invite good friends Nate and Ali Miller into the studio to talk through the topic of extracurricular overkill. Listen in as we discuss how they made the decision to pull back from gymnastics, swimming, baseball, and choir in their family of three pre-teens.
