Schoolchildren training in China and Korea really made me think about where our priorities are heading. Chinese and Korean kids are doing hardcore kindergarten PT like obstacle courses, somersaults, multi-ball drills, and sports camps from age 4-5 because parents treat physical fitness as non-negotiable foundation. This is when China and Korea are already doing well in athletics, yet they are still pushing hardcore physical training from kindergarten itself. Indian parents create Instagram accounts the day the kid is born, then dump them into Bollywood dance and 'personality development' classes so they can post reels. Result- kaddu generation with zero strength, zero endurance, and zero competitive instinct. Fitness shouldn't be a hobby or content. It’s the base layer. Priorities are inverted. Your child need not become an athlete. But for God’s sake, let them run, swim, climb, play a sport, fall and get back up. Make your child strong. Instagram profile can wait.

🇺🇸 Ex-NYPD Cop Accused of Murdering Jogger Returned to Work With Schoolchildren After Killing Sayed Mohassib, 27, allegedly stabbed 28-year-old Katie Suarez to death while she was jogging in Brooklyn on October 30.

🚨 BREAKING: German President Frank-Walter Steinmeier on immigrants: "If 42% of schoolchildren have ancestors from another country, we're no longer talking about individual citizens with an immigrant background. "Germany is our country — a country with an immigrant background."

President Pellegrini and I were delighted to witness a special Yoga demonstration by schoolchildren from Slovakia. As the world counts down to International Yoga Day, it is delightful to see the youth embrace Yoga. Also happy to see Yoga continuing to bring people together in the shared pursuit of well-being. @PellegriniP_
