I agree with much of your premise but putting it back on the schools is no better than the parents that expect the schools to teach their kids about life.

Learning begins at home, physical education included.

I have read them. That is the problem. You advocate different things in your posts. While I agree that physical education should be a component of public education, I don't agree with forcing kids to be "the best physical specimen that you as an individual can possibly be".

Yet we don't expect parents to teach kids how to do a book report, long division or science experiments.

Does the school system not constantly preach doing the best you can at the various subjects they offer as it is? I see no difference in helping kids reach a higher ground physically as well.

Exactly. Well, except for that vicious hate, racism and genocide thing. Just like Nazi Germany though.

This is far from a typo. And truth be told I'm just raggin' on Ed a bit. All in good fun.
