You editorial "Lifestyle disease" (Aug. 24) was a very educating and awareness provoking article. We all need to have a drastic lifestyle change. Every member of society should be made to have time for daily exercise. Parents should check children's dietary pattern and sugary and fatty stuff should be strictly controlled. This complete lifestyle change can only be adopted with the help of every member of family. Patience and strong willpower is also required. Maria Khan, Online response II. Building of school sports facilities with properly trained teachers in physical education/games should be considered and acted upon immediately. In my four years of teaching in Saudi Arabia I still have to see this idea raised seriously. What I see are all talks. I have a 20-year experience teaching in inner city schools in London, coordinating sports in schools across London. A good idea is to build partnership among schools so that they can share expertise and sporting facilities. Ramon Mohamed, Online response
