The way all the news stations talk about how America is an obese nation.... in that respect, I think it should be required. Kids need to learn to be active and not sit on their duffs eating crap and playing video games.

However... I have seen some PE teachers who are just mean and don't give kids the benefit of the doubt... some try and just can't do certain things well like others can.. (climbing robes, ect.) In that case... maybe it shouldn't be required. Not all kids are overweight from junk food.
i totally agree!! all kids around here do is go home and turn on the playstation and park them selves there till dinner time

yeah i've known some very mean and abusive gym teachers( one left a scars on my arm) but i think p.e. is a great thing to have in public schools
