Should the US open more junior gyms because of the large number of obese children? Why or why not?

No, I don't think so. They are already in school, and should be participating in PE. Some schools have actually cut PE.

Stupid, stupid, stupid. School could also teach ways of healthy eating that parents cannot or will not. Unless junior gyms are free, it would be funded by either tax payers or the people going.

Not many obese parents are looking or willing to pay for a healthy lifestyle for themselves. How many of these parents would be willing to pay for their obsese children to go to gyms? Having said that, schools could have after school programs besides PE.

Schools also already have sports as well. Or even open gym after school. Tax payers are already paying for the maintenance of the school, and the PE teachers.

They could volunteer 30 minutes after school for this task. It doesn't even have to be a PE teacher, it could another teacher, the Principal, or even a parent.

I think this would be a great idea. Although, just the gym alone won't solve all the obesity problems. The parents would have to have a good food programme as well as the gym.

The Gym is a great idea, and should be more of them. I also think the parents need to really take these issues seriously, as this is becoming a more and more frequent problem (obesity), not only in the U.S., but in the U.K. as well.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
