Sport is bad for you! Being thin is healthy?
over competitive, only to someone who does not compete in activities. (Sport/general knowledge/athletics days etc.)
When a kid is given to many choices, that's were the problem starts!
lol

Well tell me how much sport do you do at the moment?
How do YOU know i don't work in a competitive environment?
Why must you stereotype everyone?
Just typical
Nope...I've never seen a kid not want to participate. There's enough of a choice to satisfy everyone. Sport is very healthy and team sports help with a lot of life skills...negotiation, team play, strategising etc
not stereotyping everyone! Who is everyone?You don't work do you?
anyway, not attacking you, just my opinion...
so much wisdom for a 17 year old...

as a matter of fact i do... I have two jobs.
It felt like an attack
I still asked what sport do you do?
@gazer how much homework do your kids come home with? in the afternoon?

my comments were aimed at sport and competition, but good on you for the 2 jobs!
I have a full time job, so sport moves/transforms to hobby after school. I kites surf, squash, gym -> more for cardio, jogging etc.
If I may ask, what jobs do you do? How much time do they occupy in your daily routine?

Well i make Recordings for the church and that can take anything from a hour to more a day, am currently busy with lectures.
And then I do VHS to DVD and LP(records) to CD, it has slowed down a bit since i am actually busy writing exams, but usually takes about 3 to 4 hours...
I worked in a restaurant at one stage too but decided to leave since it was interfering in my schoolwork.

I also had a **** load of subjects in primary school, and I found it very useful.
It gives you some exposure to everything so you know a little more about what kinda subjects you will take later on. Do you wanna pick your subjects in grade one already?
