RE: Kids Need To Enjoy The Outdoors More.
I agree with you, about 50/50 really. These days the world is more attached to their devices and do not bother to go outside, and maybe get some sunshine!
On the other hand the world is a very different... and dangerous place, compared to 40 years ago when we were able to go out and play. There was no internet, no game systems, and the home pc was a dream.
And the way things are going, the future is only going to get worse with all the gadgets, and the IoT and 5G Networks. Things were simpler in days gone by.
Have a great day! :-)
I understand and think that it is up to us parents to teach our children to enjoy nature.
Yes you are right, things have changed and this is even more reason for us parents to do our job and make sure our children undersand and enjoy mother nature.
Indeed! That is why I moved from FL to PA.... way up in the mountains... to a very small town. Lots of fresh air, streams and woods!
We used to run all of the neighborhood when I was little. Be home when the streetlights came one was the rule. Would I let my kids do that in today's worlds. Hell no!! Too many frickin weirdos out there. The crazy part is you have no idea who they are.
Exactly! Same here... go outside till the lights came on. :-) You are right, children cannot do that now, nor would I want mine to be out there either, so it is a catch 22 for sure.
