    I dont know if you have kids - but I dont want my kids struggling with heavy bags - can you explain why they should?

    No more than saying that I carried them and I've never had a back problem in my life. I just don't see the need. Perhaps you can convince me?

    I dont know if I can convince you but recently, because I though the bags were too heavy I weighed my sons bag with all of the items in side - it weighed over a stone - still havn't got around to metric. Now I would not like him to carry 7 bags of sugar - why should I want him to carry this bag?

    Yes, but then we wouldn't be spending enough on any of them to actually make a significant difference.
    We are a Very rich country, many people can AFFORD slightly higher taxes. Raise taxes and budget a bit better and all problems could be addressed.
    No offence, Omni, but thats just a load of old cobblers.

    exactly, wait till he goes to secondary school. And I can tell you, my back does hurt, maybe not a serious health problem but it still hurts and doesn't exactly help concentration in the classroom.
