text: To begin, there are many kids that go home from school and watch television and eat for the rest of the day. As a result, they become lazy and end up, in some cases, gaining weight from doing nothing. If more students are required to do community service, it would actually give them an opportunity to go outside or to be with someone and have company. For example, i know for a fact, that STUDENT_NAME would rather be building a house for the homeless than watch another episode of Grey's Anatomy. I think that the principal's decision will definitely affect everyone in a situation like this.
