It is true that rural children do not work in agriculture or are not active in various physical activities like before. But even then, compared to the cities, our children in the villages are much more physically fit and in other activities. For example, it is very noticeable that children in the villages are constantly playing sports, fishing or walking on the streets. Many children even run a lot. I even grew up in the village and am currently teaching in a school in the village. Although some boys and girls in the village are away from agriculture, they are participating in other activities, especially running or other sports.
Yep. I suspect there is a difference between your rural and Finland rural. Finnish rural is actually not very rural at all, compared to many countries.
