Look at those 2 girls coming back from school. Remark their frail figure and the heavy load on their back. They are only second graders. What will they carry when they are 12? What can be done to relieve them? Sometimes I see mothers carrying the schoolbags of their kids. But mostly I see small kids like those struggling to go home.
We are then surprised to find out that they suffer from back problems!

This problem has existed since ever, and I am disapointed that they still didn’t find a solution for it yet.

yes this problem from long time, i remember when i was in high school (a private school, i was 16 years old), my little cousin was in the same one, she was 8 years old then, and saw her carring her bag, and when i wanted to help her, i was shocked from the bag’s weight, and yes still today we still find this, although the state changed the program, but for bad and not for better. This little girl I just told you about had suffer pain in her back and malformation, and guess what? no one ever thought of changing these heavy programs not even the teachers or the school responsible.
