text: Schools tend to offer many activities, but they don't offer all of them. As a result, there will be students who just aren't interested in any of them. Many may feel it's best not to waste their time on something they won't enjoy. So making students participate in an activity may cause them to not feel motivated in whatever they're doing, which can bring the whole team or group down. If a student is forced into an activity they don't enjoy, they wont want to do much with the group/team.
