Everybody gets a trophy, right? At the end of the year they will all be prom kings and queens.


I don't get the issue with participation trophies. It's not like the winners get the sand sized trophy. So what if some kids feel better with a small trophy, doesn't effect anyone else the slightest.


learning to accept failure is healthy for kids. i'm not going to go out of my way to protest or raise hell over participation trophies, but I do feel its a stupid notion.


But they are literally accepting failure trophies. I just see this as reminders to do better next time. But I agree no need to argue with that.

As for the topic

Personally, I feel anyone on the cheerleading squad needs to be able to pass a basic physical fitness test. Cheerleaders have to deal with very strenuous activity which frequently causes injuries. Letting those who aren't physically able to keep up would lead to people getting hurt.
