Judy Murray, mother of the famous tennis star Andy Murray, is trying to get people, especially children, to exercise more. She plans on doing do by getting schools to double the amount of physical education lessons in schools. As research shows, few children exercise at all. A third of girls who have passed the age of 16 don’t exercise anymore. Moreover, only an astonishing 15% of children between the age of 11 to 15 take regular exercise. Judy states that solutions are easy to come by, they are just plainly ignored.
I think it’s a very good idea to double PE lessons. Children nowadays are lazy. They don’t have to go anywhere. They get picked up from school by car, then go home, watch television, eat and go to sleep. So if parents aren’t taking responsibility for their children’s health, the school should. It’s really the only way. Next to that, food that is given to the children at school should be bettered. There have been several shows on TV that showed us what children are served; hamburgers, fries, even sweetened milk! I think it’s absolutely ridiculous and therefore am more than pleased to hear that at least someone is trying to make a change in this fat-obsessed, lazy world.
