Children are getting more lazy in practising sports because they spend too much time sitting down playing with computer games. I think that children need to be involved in sports activities since it is good for their health, mentally and physically. Personally I think that parents have to be more educated to know the need for children to be active everyday. What do you think that parents should do?

You are so right children do not get the exercise that they need to be getting. Back in the day when i was young they did not have all the video stuff they have today. we played out side all the time.....running, jumping rope, hop scotch......Ect.

Hello,Gauci! You are right.The children now a days spend most of their time in studies and computer games.So they stay at home even in the hours of playing.Very rarely they go out for playing games and sports for which they invite many complicacies to their health besides being lazy.thanx.

I use to have this problem with my children as well. However after I signed my children up for recreational soccer and basketball leagues they have come to love sports. I think that you should set a good example and be a role model by playing sports with your children and exercising a regular basis as well. After your children see that you enjoy exercising they will come to want to as well.
