I noticed your from TO.
What I've learned (last 10 years being in Canada) is there is a big emphasis on organized activities and after school and all that kind of stuff, tends to be from the "moms"
Not saying they should not be doing something, as I said I teach her Piano, she helps me with the BM.
My wife spends her whole weekend ferrying ML around other than being damn expensive, poor kid doesnt know which day of the week it is
no down time

I firmly blame the mid-upper class mothers, neurotic to the core.
