School bags….

Daily Morning I see my son struggle with putting up his school bag on his back. Seriously the weight is killing. He has around 8 subjects in day. All his text books are long book size. So are his notebooks. During our time, at least the books used small in size, and we could easily divide the books into two lots, side by side in the bag. Not anymore. The size of the books allows books to be kept in one single row, which bulges the bags out like a pregnant woman’s baby hump. Exactly what is being gained by this I dont understand. Kids of such small ages have to pick up more than 10 kgs daily on their backs. Serious thought should be given by the schools about this. They are playing with the developing spines of kids or developing brains of kids?
