Likewise excessive socializing or exercise would preclude kids from reading or screen time. I don't see your point.

I guess their point was to balance the times. I.e. Yes, excessive socializing would also be bad if you start neglecting everything else.

Excessive socializing is the default, though - if kids have nothing better to do, they "hang out".

The clear solution is to jog on the spot, chatting with your friends while watching TV with subtitles on. The ultimate activity.

Perfectly showcasing why trying to do all simultaneously in a "balance" makes you benefit from none of them.
