    Jun 15 2011: I find it heartbreaking that so many schools have resorted to reducing physical education classes and recess for children of all ages. I find it incomprehensible that children, boys in particular, who struggle to sit still as a result of ADD/ADHD, learning differences or pure boredom, often have the elimination of recess used as a form of punishment. Is there are concerted effort to recognize and restore the value of PE and "outside"time to our children's school life? If so, can you provide the link? Thanks for your dedication to creativity and social change.
