[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Strongest students I know, seemingly least stressed, are kids with significant sports time commitments. They seem to prioritize their time to get it all done and still get enough sleep. I think lack of sleep is a huge part of the stress kids are experiencing. [/quote] If the 3 hours in sports practice/match is replacing 3 hours that would have been spent on screens/social media than the sports is definitely better for eyes, brain, body, sleep, socialization, overall mental health[/quote] +1 It's not really the schools that are causes of stress. Social media use is a huge cause of stress and anxiety. Fixation on college and all the numbers/testing/grades required to get into certain schools also causes a lot of stress -- ignoring how much harder college admissions are. Kids feel that every little assessment is a huge deal because they're trying to reach some magical number rather than focusing on learning.[/quote]
