Overweight kids - point to the parents.
December 12th, 2007 | by |We get a decent amount of overweight kids who come in and try the school. Inevitably, most of those kids opt out. We would like for them to stay but the issues are with the parents rather than the kids himself.
There is a reason why these kids are obese. The parents are obese, or they baby their kids (obesity is an epidemic if you haven’t noticed). Either way, you have kids that will keep the anti-depressant manufacturers busy.
The kids who succeed in life are the ones who are kept physically and mentally healthy. Yes, these kids need to be pushed, but they will have to leave the nest and fend themselves in the real world.
I hope some of these parents are rich because they may have a roommate for a very long, long time.
