IN THE PAST...
•Before these after school programs were created, children were either left on their own at the home until their parents came home from work or were watched by someone
•Many students tended to go home and wasted their time doing activities that did absolutely nothing to improve their health
•Children got caught up in gangs, drugs and alcohol, violence and were likely to participate in sexual activity
•Children tended to sit and stare at the television or computer screen and would most likely lean towards becoming obese
