10 reasons why school isn\'t good for your health

1. Sleepless nights: With so much homework, who would expect to sleep early (if at all)? Swollen eyes and dark circles become a common facial feature. 2. Missing breakfast: With the rush to leave early, you miss an essential meal of the day. 3. Chattering teeth: For some, it\'s an expression, for us, it\'s for real, especially when you wait at the bus stop for the school bus at 6am on a January morning! 4. Back pain: School bags that are twice your weight give you the feeling that your shoulders and back will ache until they break. 5. It\'s all work and no play: With endless homework, how can we enjoy the outdoors? If sitting in one place and moving your pen won\'t turn you into a fat, lazy lump, then I don\'t know what will. 6. You miss the wonderful chance of a jog in the fresh early morning breeze, instead staying trapped in the bus, heading towards school. 7. Zero per cent chance of staying on a diet: You can hear your stomach growling when you return home in the afternoon. 8. Your ears get affected by your noisy class. Believe me! 9. Dental decay: Birthdays, achievements and victories are some of the many reasons for chocolate binge. Result? Cavities. 10. Teacher\'s scoldings, a fight with a friend, failing a test or losing a game, all lead to one symptom - depression. Now who\'d say depression\'s good for you?
