YES!!! Today most kids are fat and lazy. Their Idea of exercise is pushing the X button of the PS2. By get outside they might be able to burn off some of the lard they are carrying around. And live in a realistic world. The outdoors has so much to offer.\nAnd the parents today are the ones to blame. (sorry hit a sore spot).

Not with all the things their giving them these days.  I think kids should be able to use some creativity and do what they wannt to for a portion of the day.  A good creative mind is vvery important.

YES YES YES - we used to get paddled in middle school. I wish they could bring that paddle BACK for these kids today. They could use MORE discipline and if they were "scared to get sent to the office for fear of a paddling" then MAYBE it would do some good for these hellians who walk around with the attitude that they're "kings and queens".

Yes. Too many kids have a pack mentality. They shun anyone who has different views even if they are perfectly reasonable. It's hard for the dreamer, the shy one or the one who marches to a different drummer to be accepted.

Most likely not.  They are usually playing with some injury as it is  during the course of a tournament.  They would not want to pile on the extra doubles tournament because they are going to want to recover for their singles play,  It would be a good idea I think foe them to play, nut I do not see it happening.

i dont like seeing very young children playing contact sport. some start at five years old and i think that is too young. 10 years old is probably the safest age and make sure they have protective gear on like helmets and mouth guards.

it's not one side game.both boys and girls love playing with eachother.a girl-boy breaks your heart,so u make the next girl-boy pay for it.and it goes on and on...so do not trust anybody and don't believe his-her stories.just act like u believe,but be sure to keep something in advance if things go wrong so u won't be the only one being played.

I started playing a little bit around fifth grade, but this year I'm taking the class in high school and I'm on the school team. It's really fun and rewarding... Ever since I started playing more this year, I've gotten a lot more excercise and made a lot more friends! I especially like how it's not a contact sport. And you can play singles or doubles. I like doubles, but only if I like my doubles partner :)

yes,depends on the environment and how you treat the kid.\nThey will learn as they grow older. Be nice to them.

Keep pushing them to let you play.  Sixth grade boys are still very immature.  \n\nWhen I was in 7th grade I remember often inviting girls to play with us.  It was more fun having girls play too.

The environment SHOULD be recreational for kids under 12. This gives them time to enjoy playing for the sake of playing before the competitiveness kicks in. Over 12 there is an emphisis on skills and desire to win. It is sad to see parents pushing kids as young as 5 and 6 to be ultra competitive. Parents should stop trying to make their kids do things that they can no longer do themselves. GAME ON...ENJOY IT WHILE YOU CAN.

i think so. when your a kid you can amuse yourself with a brick, some rope, and bubble gum. try doing that when your older!

Yes there is. We need to get kids more active. Kids spend too much time watching TV and playing video games. They should spend more time playing outside. Fast food is also a problem, it is high in fat with little nutrition.

Yes, because this is the way of learning.  If things are easy you will keep going until you run into a snag.  Help children move constructively through challenges and learn to solve their own conflicts and problems.

There are some boys who kick like girls!!!\nAnd some girls I know, would kick the ball and their as(s) how strong they are!!!\nSo it all depends on how are people built and how much they practice.

I would say so. Physically, it's a great exercise. It's mentally challenging. You can play at any age or skill level. There are so many different styles, making it fun both to watch and play.
