Question

Should young kids be in competitive sports? The role of sports in kids’ lives has changed a lot in recent years. While kids used to play outside with their friends, you can now find three year olds lining up for soccer practice. Do you think sports deserve all the time and energy they get? Think about your own life and the lives of your friends and take a stand. Is it a good thing that kids’ sports have become so pervasive and competitive? Give specific examples to support your argument.

Answer 1

Umm yes because it’s nice to get a little exercise in life and starting at a young age for sports can make you better at them and get a scholarship easier if you would like to continue the sport.
