I have two 7 year old boys and an 11 year old girl in the house. Kind of grand kids...

Electronics are ruining them.

iPads, Xbox, computers, YouTube (may be the worse) all together and they are a mess.

Bought one of the boys a bike for Christmas. I might as well have tried to teach him COBOL.

You have a great topic to write about.

And many getting obese doing so. If you can, move them out to play, as my parent did often to us.

I have some friends whose daughters are getting all A's and B's in school, but they do not have any cell phones (parents cannot afforded them). They said something like halfways thru a class period a teacher will say, OK, you can go to your phones now. But they feel left out. Modern Classrooms.

I said that is why they get good grades, and not to buy them phones. If they really need them, make them work and buy them. I myself only have a landline, and am not looking for a cell. Desktop PC can handle far more, thank God.
