The little time I am in the city, I don’t even see kids playing outside, let alone mowing a lawn.
Today’s kids get out of bed, go to daycare/school, come home later than they used to, then either go to an organized sport or watch tv/sit on the computer.
On the weekends they run errands with parents, go to friends’ houses to play computer games, or visit with the parent with whom they no longer reside. It’s heartbreaking.
P.S. I also am 64....as of today.
Happy birthday, Judy!
Looks like there are a lot of kids who need to learn how to play and get used to unstructured events.
Computers and the internet have caused as much trouble as they have improved certain things.
