Speech of Students need to realize activities apart of classes

According to many newspapers, nowadays many students are not developing well due

to lack of activities, the refusal to leave for the street, or laziness. It is starting to come after

children enter adolescence. My name is Fabrizio Liza and today I will talk about how

important the activities have been for the students and how effective they were in their

development.

First of all, it is essential to reflect on the fact that nowadays sport is being necessary

for children in their development of life and puberty. The reality is that because of the

pandemic more children are not doing activities to prevent contagious diseases outside their

homes and apart from that, physical activity is essential not only to get rid of body weight.
However, since Covid-19 has been introduced in 2019,there are some parents that

prefer to keep their children in their house only studying or playing computer games to be

safer from the virus, and obviously, there are other parents that will wait until all of the

Covid-19 problems ends.

Regarding the last point, my question for the parents is: Have you ever faced a

situation where in the stage of your growth without any physical activity? I think no because

in the times your fathers let you do all the necessary activities to grow as a normal child, so

do not let their sons down and stand up for them in this process of development that is crucial

for his future.

All in all, we all stand up to promote the activities to all students and concern the

fathers about this problem. Why is it not a problem that many kids are not doing physical

activities as important as the health care of the students now? It is seen that it is not being

taken into account.

Thank you very much for your attention.
