Yo, college students, and maybe high school kids too...?

Sexay as H

Do you feel annoyed by those rolling backpacks? Are they a complete hassle at your school or college too? Ever wonder why it's usually the chubby people at college who roll those dumb thingsa around? And they actually use the elevator to roll their bag, when wheelchair students are waiting to use it to get to class. Are these things an issue at your college too? Or high school, for the young ones using this site.
Yes, I am a fatty too, nut use a real back pack, not a rolling one. Rolling luggage is cool, but for trips not college. Just sayin...

Answer
I love the sound the wheels make. I know it may annoy you with all their other flaws but that sound is just so soothing to me.
These kids are just thinking of their back health. It would hurt them to carry it up the stairs! Do you know how much those little wheels weigh?! Neither do I but I'm sure its allot and that's why they have to take the elevator!

would 7-10 year old kids like a backpack or a duffle bag as a gift?

Shitij-www

I have to give a freebie gift to children aged 7-10 years. I've noticed they either carry a cartoon backpack (Barbie, Ben10, Batman, etc) or a branded backpack (Nike, Adidas, Puma) to school.
Would these kids appreciate a well design backpack or a well design duffle (gym) bag to use for travel and hobby classes.

Can walking 1.5 miles every other day home with a heavy backpack prevent me from growing any taller?

Ryan

Im a 14 year old male and i have to walk home usually on Tuesdays and Thursday from my school which is 1.5 miles away from my house. And i was just wondering could this effect me growing anymore because im only about 5' 4' and the other kids in my class are about 5' 9" or so. Also none of them have to walk home or that far so could that be why i'm so much smaller?

Answer
Hi,

Yes, carrying heavy bags to school on a regular basis could be the reason for your reduced growth.
It could also just be natural, Im male and when I was 14 I was 5,2, but in 1 year I grew to 5,6, and kept going :D.

There are also other permanent problems you are risking by carying the bag that may serously effect you later in your life. These include nervous, and muscular trauma.

I would recommend, that you get a bag with wheels on the bottom that you can pull, or find place to leave your books in school.

Hope this Helps

When did kids start taking rolling suitcases to school?

icecold

Answer
When we decided to do something about the threat of Scoliosis ( I think that's how it is spelled.) I myself take a rolling backpack to school and I assure you it is much better for your back than lugging around a ton of textbooks with a traditional backpack. In case you aren't aware, scoliosis is when the vertebrae becomes crooked because of extended periods of uneven weight distribution. Since back packs are hardly centered scoliosis can show up when the child becomes older.

And they aren't really rolling suitcases, they are just backpacks with wheels and a plastic frame.

I hope I answered your question!

This kid at my high school talks to himself?

kids backpacks for school with wheels image

Kane F

He just walks up and down the hallways having conversations with himself. Yesterday, he stopped in the middle of the hallway, jumped up, and said "I hear something Shaking" and started hitting his backpack. Then at lunch he was talking to a pole. Is he schizophrenic? I'm not making fun of him, but i just want o know what is his condition because of my thirst for knowledge.

Answer
Hmmm... there are actually symptoms of different things here.

Schizophrenics (depending on the severity of the problem), display several symptoms.

Schizophrenics don't necessarily talk to themselves. They suffer from delusions (either visual, auditory, or thought-based). Thought-based delusions are harder to define, but they involve feeling that people are looking at them, judging them, plotting against them, or just out to get them. Sometimes the delusions are auditory (where they hear voices telling them to do things), or they are visual (where there'll see things that aren't there.) Schizophrenics can ALSO have the tendency to not move at all or react to external stimuli (a condition called "catatonic schizophrenia.")

Fixating on weird objects or obsessing on objects (like doorknobs, and poles) and communicating with them is a symptom of autism or high functioning autism. But there's a lot more to autism than just obsessing about weird objects or talking to them.

Is he speech delayed, is he able to communicate and instigate conversations with others? Can he differentiate between friends and "acquaintances?" Is he gullible and trusting of others to get screwed over, or is he untrusting of everyone? Does he interact with toys in weird ways (like instead of rolling a car across a table or floor, he flips it upside down and spins the wheels)? When he does talk to others, does he have any eye contact? Does he require to have what is instructed of him to be repeated? Does he have an acute attention to detail (like when he looks at pictures, does he look at the picture as a whole, or does he notice minor details within the photo)? Does he get easily frustrated? How does he perform well in the classroom? And when he talks to himself, can you hear what he says? Does it sound like he is verballizing his thoughts (saying his thoughts aloud) or is he actually having conversations with himself? Those are all questions that are considered when dealing with autistic people (or people on the autism spectrum, such as people with Asperger's, High Functioning Autism, etc...) People with certain degrees of autism often have been diagnosed as schizophrenic as well.

Ultimately, to come to a definitive diagnosis of what he has is extremely difficult to do if you don't know all of the symptoms. There is A LOT that goes into determining what is wrong with someone. The symptoms that you described don't really show the whole picture.
