Sports play an indispensable role in promoting health and overall well-being. The debate over whether parents or schools should bear the responsibility for children's physical activities remains contentious. However, I strongly disagree with the view that schools should exclude sports from their curricula. Instead, I believe that the responsibility for children's physical health should be a shared effort between both schools and parents. This essay will argue why it is essential to include sports as part of the academic curriculum while also emphasizing the role of parents in fostering their children's physical well-being.
