I remember playing hopscotch in primary school but by the time you get to high school theres no way in todays schools you would play it. I think it would help if youth clubs didnt just stick to the building they're based in and get outside on a summers night with some footballs and go to a local playing field. Any straglers wondering the streets would be tempted to join in. Not every teenager wants to go to a youth club to wait half an hour for there go at pool.
Oh, so human physiology and psychology have changed, and all of a sudden humans develop differently And peer pressure now flourishes in new and improved ways. If you are attempting to argue that there has been a major change in the nature of adolescence, you made a lousy attempt. And "straglers wondering"! No doubt twas brillig that night.
