Sports are awesome and beneficial in many ways, or are they? That is a debate amongst many parents, former athletes and ordinary people. Some individuals see the value in school and team sports and others do not. What are your opinions on sports? Good or bad opinions, views and thoughts are welcomed. Remember we are bringing about conversation, thought and new perspectives. What do they teach us? How do they help us develop? Is what we learn in an organized sport, valued? Can we take and utilize the information and experiences we learned through team sports and apply it to life?

What can we do as peers, friends, family members, acquaintances and members of society to change somebody's day for the better? It does not have to be something big, expensive and elaborate, but if you would like, go for it! Share those ideas. I was thinking more on the lines of something small, something simple, but yet could and does have a big impact on somebody's day or week. What is it we can do to be?

Explain to me why you think (or know) adolescents act out, speak harshly to other students and disrespect adults? What can we (adults and fellow peers) do about this? How can students change their behaviors? Why should they? Do or can their actions affect them in the near and distant future?
