I don't see any kids carrying books/folders to/from school anymore either.
LOL...look for the backpacks. That's where the books are. Or are supposed to be. And that is causing all kinds of physical development problems for some kids. Some kids look like the Hunchback of Notre Dame walking up and back to school. The answer is to not give homework and carry less books. Save their posture and keep them dumb. I remember looking like Mr. Nerd carrying a big leather briefcase up and back to school. But it sure made my arms and hands strong
