P.E. May No Longer Be A Required Course

No kid should have to grow up without getting a volleyball thrown in their face, or some other sensitive area. :faint:

Yes they should! And they should not keep score, or learn about competion, of learn physical contact or sports, or get tired or winded, or have any monkey bars around or any other fun things on a playground as they may get hurt. Also, they should all be put in a bubble and taught that exercise is bad and everyone is equally talented. This country is going backwards so fast!! :bash :bash

Every kid on a team regardless of winning or losing should recieve a trophy..




NOT

And they should all get A's just for trying. It's not fair to give a kid a D or F just because they don't know the material or answers.

No P.E. will eliminate the crushing blow of “I got picked last”. Just think how that will help little Johnny’s or Susie’s self esteem.

I was actually agreeing with you (in a somewhat sarcastic way) but I could of worded it more clearly.

I thought the "duh" was agreement with your question.

When I was in HS, PE was required every year. The year after I graduated, it went down to 3 years and then to 2 years.

That obesity rate will be rising. Guess we need more "Girls on the Run" and whatever the equivalent is for boys. Too bad grade school kids can't enjoy play and learning through play subconsciously. I don't know how the teachers can handle those kids that are all cooped up all day.

Yeah, snarky one.
