Tears on the Schoolbus

Jordan has decided he doesn’t like school anymore. Each morning this week he has been plagued with a terrible stomache and tears. Is his teacher the problem? No. Is it the big, scary bus ride between schools he doesn’t like? No. It’s PE. Yes, you heard me right. PE is a stupid time, when all the students do is stand around. Standing around is hard work, according to Jordan. And would you believe on top of all the standing around, sometimes they are made to squat. “Squats are killer on your legs”, he says. Nevermind the fact that his father is very athletic, has a PE degree, and makes his money taking care of athletes all day. The boy hates PE! Who would have thought! Say a prayer for Jordan that he will begin to enjoy PE and want to go to school. Tomorrow, there is no PE, so we’ll see if that changes his outlook in the morning.
