ABOUT THE STUDENT BODY
  This true story really shows us how we can be cruel without even meaning to. The Student Body tells the story of two girls fighting against bullying and the government insincerity while investigating the problem of childhood obesity.
  Different schools made the children get weighed and then they find out what there BMI is So if don’t fit within the numbers there were sent a letter saying they were not without certain numbers and essentially told they were fat.
  I think this is very unfair as children and young adults are at a stage when they think everything about themselves is wrong. They think they are to fat, to skinny, their hair is to straight or to curly etc… Now to put this on them is just to much.
  One of the girls is a journalist major and made this film documentary to try to get to the bottom of why the children were sent letters. She also tried numerous times to talk to her senator and he wouldn’t talk to her. She tried emails, phone calls, tried to see him at a rally. Then she went to his office and confronted him face to face.
  This is quite an excellent documentary and I recommend it for each and every one.  It kept me very interested and it will show you if you don’t give up you will get answers to your questions.

MY REVIEW
  Season of a Lifetime is an extraordinary, highly inspiring documentary. Showing the faith and integrity of Jeremy Williams. He is a person who never gives up and who keeps praising God no matter what happens in his life.  So many times we complain about ever little thing, but we are so blessed with everything we have and above all our health. Watch this DVD to see a truly courageous man and his wonderful family.
    One part of this documentary that I love and find so inspiring is the day Jeremy and his wife find out that he has ALS he tells her we will cry today, but after today we will live life to the fullest, just like nothing has happened. Precious people and they love the Lord so much.
  I love the way Jeremy cares for his players on his football team. They consider him a father figure. That is very special since some of them have no father. He cares and loves his team and family. Also besides Jeremy’s disease his son was born with Spina Bifida and many other troubles. This documentary is truly about Faith, Family and Football. I have never enjoyed and loved watching a DVD as much as this one. I highly recommend that you buy this for your family library.
