Teen exercise could lower dementia risk at 65 - Health - CBC News:
Teen exercise is an important issue for the health of the young generation today. This article discusses how the lack of exercise at an early age can lead to dementia, though it is certainly not the only outcome. In BC, making PE only a requirement until grade 10 makes it much more difficult for teens to manage school work and physical activity, and we usually end up giving up physical activity to complete our school assignments. I personally think learning to manage your time and being able to do your school work and incorporate physical activity is difficult, and schools should better prepare and teach their students about balance.
