Health

I suspect that I take good health for granted due to the fact that I've always had it.

Psh, I learned more about sex ed in an empty cabin at band camp, thank you...

All the money in the world cannot surpass good health.

It's one of those many things we take for granted until something goes wrong.It's best to have a balance,but some people in my opinion are so hung up on "health" that they miss out on a lot of fun,and still have health problems like the rest of us.It's strange how a lot of people are willfully ignorant to the health threats of pollution and rampant consumerism.They don't smoke or drink,but they vote for candidates who gut environmental laws,go figure!!!

I have to say that one should always be concerned about their health. If you don't care about your health, at least think of the other people that would be affected by your death. Simple as that.

fruits have been always good for vitamins

In my highschool, this was some strange old guy telling us (using the most bizarre euphemisms) not to jerk off. Yeah, like that's going to work on a bunch of fifteen year old boys.

"Sex ed" might have increased attendance. We spent lots of time on other organs and their functions. My football coach "taught" health and "drivers' education." I took both classes. "Sex ed" filled the 15 hour driving requirement as he spoke freely of what he wanted to do with each of the babes in my class upon their 18th birthday. He did so by giving me icebreakers and techniques crafted for each young lady. vHe did stop fantasizing often enough to "coach" driving survival and talk football. Somehow, I felt taken into the inner circle of jockdom.

I am suppposed to have taken health by now, but I'm not sure I have had a true health class. Last year in 7th grade,we were supposed to have sex education. Well, for some reason orchastra is our home room, so we didn't get the same classes as the rest of the honors team. We went over "life goals", "puberty", and "importance of school". No sex ed. Later the orchastra learns that the honors team did have sex ed, but we were split up and for some reason, put with non-honors kids for the day.

pretty much common sense, but I guess some people need to be taught that

I could really care less about my health!!!!! I do a lot of things that are not healthy. This is not something that I give any thought to!

Everybody should value their health and take care of themselves to the best of their ability.

How can anything else be important if i'm dead.

We didn't have health in the 1940's and 1950's when I went to school. What in the world is health?

Probably the most worthless high school class in existance. The idea behind the class is good, but its execution is not. I learned nothing, because we really didn't do anything.

I regret that there is no such subject as Health in Germany where I live. It would do much for the preparation of young people for life, no matter how boring they find it.

The sex ed was cool. The cereal company 4 food groups propaganda wasn't.

The gym teachers usually taught this, and you might have it every fifth time you were scheduled for gym. Generally after class, you'd sneak into the lav for a cigarette or a joint, so I guess their talk was wasted on unreceptive ears."Skipability' factor- high.

Probably wouldn't live long without atleast a SENSE of good overall health. I don't want to live to be 100, but living to a nice old age would be nice...

Enjoy it while you have it, and be grateful, for it is not forever.  Carpe diem.  All things change and end, especially this one.

health is taken for granted until someone feels lousy. probably the good part of getting the flu or a cold that is temporary. reminds me that good health is big on importance. I think when someone ends up with a permanant illness it really strikes about what good health means. as I grow older the concern for remaining healthy gets bigger. knowing that someday this may go away.

I have taken my health for granted for most of my life, liike most of us. I want to be around to enjoy my grandkids for a long time, so I'm trying to get back in somewhat reasonable shape and good health. If you want to enjoy any of the things on this list, you need to be healthy. Very important!

It's the foundation of everything there is to enjoy in life.  Even if some of your favorite pursuits are detrimental to health - and I enjoy the grape like many - without basic good health you have nothing.  I'd give it a ten if that were allowed.

Something to work on, someone to hold and something to look forward to.  If you're healthy enough to enjoy them, thank Whomever or Whatever you thank for such blessings.

It's not the amount of time that you have here on Earth that really counts, it's quality that matters.   Good health is something that you take for granted a lot of the time, it's when you get sick for an extended amount of time that you really appreciate it.

Very important! I just recently had about 6 to 8 pre-cancerous moles removed off my back.

That would be nice ! Good health allows you to live your life to its longest and fullest fullfillment.

It should be taught by a Younger hipper person in their Thirties. These Old ladies who usually teach Health just dont get it!

An important class if you have the right teacher. My sixth-grade health teacher was the worst. She had a diagram of the male reproductive system on the overhead and a pointer in hand. I can still hear her voice, saying, and this is the...

A little boring, but again very important! It's sad to think that kids really don't know what STD's are, but a surprising number don't. A majority of kids think that AIDS is curable! This is a serious problem, and kids need to be educated on these topics. I don't think it should be done in such a way that tells kids no sex, sex is horrible. Some have been taught that way, and that isn't helping. Kids need to know about options, and consequences! Also, exercise and diet are important for kids to learn about too! Obesity is on the rise, and something needs to be done about it!

Health was another one of my favorites. I found it so easy. They basically taught us the same stuff over and over again, "Drugs are bad!" "Eat right!" "Get exercise!" and stuff like that.

i thought it was going to be ok but everyday i hear some speaker talking about how bad drugs and alcohol are or how we might get pregnant if we have sex. duh! tell us something that we don't know

My Health class ties in to Home Economics. Health can be a very usefull class. We learn about food dangers, CPR and other hospital stuff, and smoking, sex, etc. Lost much credit for libiotism controlling it.

Health and Phys. Ed. kind of go together. They're important subjects, especially when more than half of our country is overweight. I think they should focus more on emergency safety (i.e. Heimlich Maneuver, CPR, How/When to apply a tourniquet, etc.); we only got all of one day on that kind of information. It's good for young people to learn about healthful eating habits and dangerous eating disorders.

My high school and college health classes were some of the most interesting and actually useful classes I remember having.
