….Maybe Michelle can pray for better grades.

Gee, REALLY??? It took until 2012 before ANYBODY could make that discovery, with all of the PhDs and Masters Degrees out there?? Hmmm….”Would it be better for a child to be physically and MENTALLY fit, or would it be better for the kid to be FAT and STUPID, because all they did was eat junk food and sit on the couch playing video games all day?” Oh, but PUHLEEZE, let’s not violate ANYBODY’S “privacy” and investigate the families of those children who are obese and doing poorly in school, to see if they are living in a ‘nurturing’ environment. THAT would violate SOMEBODY’S ‘rights’, especially if they were receiving any ‘entitlements’.

Your Information is so Informative.

Another study conducted in the UK found that children who did poorly in school also lacked structure in their home lives. Most reported that they did not have set times for bed or meals. So…after all these years of experimentation in education, we find out that the way things were done 50 years ago in this country, were correct…at least as far as providing children with the basic necessities for learning, health and growth as a human being. My parents weren’t being mean when they made me go to bed at a certain time…or sit down for meals…or get off my butt and go outside to play with the neighborhood kids. Evidently our teachers who took us outside to play 3 times a day, and taught us the rules of games and behavior were correct as well. Apparently our position as the leading country in education, manufacturing, finance, military…and all the rest came, at least in part, from leading disciplined lives. Growth comes through meeting challenges and attaining goals…sometimes difficult ones. Simply amazing.

Hungry kids – tired kids – scared kids – all play a part in learning – What a stupid study – due to the obvijous – but worth it if it gets kids outside and schools start recess again for those who need a piece of paper by “experts”. Being active helps EVEYONE! This weekend I took a 7 mile walk and when I got home, not tired, I actually got a lot done – I felt so good! I thought I would be tired, but it was like getting all the pent up energy out and I felt refreshed! I can’t wait till I can get out again! Kids should have that feeling – plus keeping active helps teens with their “moods”.
