July 22, 2006 Hour 1 - Have we made physical activity become a punishment for children instead of fun?

How is it that we have let physical activity become a punishment for children instead of fun?

Used to be, if kids got in trouble, parents made them come inside, but now the punishment is going outside.

Today on Healthy Living, we are going to visit with an old friend, one of the pre-eminent physical education instructors in the country.   Phil Lawler, the pride of Naperville, Ill., joins us.
 
Youâ??re going to learn just how important physical education really is, for both bodies and minds, and how you can be a change agent for your kids or grandkids.
