I feel sorry for kids today because they dont get to enjoy the outside things that we all did has kids. Climbing trees, making forts, hanging out with all the kids in the neighborhood, etc...

I find that being unplugged (like we were in the 60's and 70's) has some definite advantages.  Just keeping up with todays minimums - phone, tv and computer is almost $200 a month!  When phones were 20 a month, tv was free and you didn't need a computer it was much easier to be poor.  Now, it is nearly impossible since most things are done by computer and let's face it....TV is the number one way we spend our time.  I start to do some things on line and find myself wondering why I spend my time this way!  I think kids would be better off with less of these things.

I'd rather look ahead and imagine what todays kids will have when they grow up - and what the world will be like when they have kids.  If I consider all the things that have been introduced since I was a kid, it boggles my mind what the future could bring  ::)
