Kids have GOT to know what kind of power they possess mentally in order to challenge themselves.Thee_Kweenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08407574065109052178noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7395020092021631772.post-89922224991985261292008-11-25T16:42:00.000-05:002008-11-25T16:42:00.000-05:00Girl, do not get me started on this...I have had t...Girl, do not get me started on this...<BR/><BR/>I have had to tell my older sister about this same shyt (excuse the french). She gave her kids EVERYTHING. Each one (she has three) had their own tv's vcr, radio before they turned 10. And cell phones??? They had more cell phones than I had as an ADULT. Right now the boys (18 and 17) and on a contract plan with T-mobile, with the phone in the 18 year old's name and neither one of them got a job. WTF??? Maybe it's just me, because we were raised in two different households by two different mothers (we got the same father) but the way I was raised I had to earn that stuff. Read, go to the library, participate in school activities. There wasn't no sit in front of the television all day every day. Matter of fact, we are talking about the country so GO OUTSIDE AND PLAY...and DON'T COME BACK TILL IT'S DARK. Get some physical activity why don't you. You know we ran all day. Hide and go seek, red light green light. kickball, baseball, frisbee, racing, double dutch. I could go on for days. The times have definitely changed.Diamond~Starhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02301138869047152647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7395020092021631772.post-76227005352008302008-11-21T22:01:00.000-05:002008-11-21T22:01:00.000-05:00You're right. They do misuse what they have. So ma...You're right. They do misuse what they have. So maybe its not a lack of it, just misguided.<BR/><BR/>I don't think having an imagination can ever get old. It is that function, the ability to see what's not visible to the naked eye...that fuels great ideas. I am using my imagination everyday. Writing my book is a prime example. Adults too need to use their imagination. I just think people get complacent and have allowed their minds to become lazy. Everyday functions are now simply reliant upon electronic and digital assistance. <BR/><BR/>I'm not saying do away with toys...just diminish the amount of time a kid uses it.Thee_Kweenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08407574065109052178noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7395020092021631772.post-89735812827296383822008-11-21T21:50:00.000-05:002008-11-21T21:50:00.000-05:00Oh, trust me, these kids have a HELL of imaginatio...Oh, trust me, these kids have a HELL of imagination. It just ain't use to do nothing productive in some cases. I won't put em' ALL in there...but you get what I'm sayin'.<BR/><BR/>Anyway, the imagination thing get's old after a certain age. When you reach 8 years old and up, it's all about Video games and cartoons.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
