basically kids can now view all different types of television shows and music listen to all different types of music and some are influenced to follow these people. which isn't always the right thing. But kids have at least one person they look up to and whom ever they might be.. and usually act on how they try to be like someone most of the time that is.

I have to agree, most kids are given to many toys, or sit in front of computer/tv all day.
My girls do have toys, but most of their time is spend outdoors, they have a swimmingpool for warmer days,lol, a trampoline, a tetherball and a volleyball court out back. If the get bored with that, they can go to the pond with their boat. Also lots of trees to climb and trails to explore, I try to keep computer and tv down to aout an hour a day. Oh, almost forgot......there is always a good book waiting to be read |

as for me..no matter what toy i was given,it didnt matter..the whole outdoors was my toy...i would be 10 years old when me and my best friend..copine(which is french for friend)..he was an irish wolf hound..big son-of a buck..would go to the forrests of pincourt with a tent..and sleeping bag..with all kinds of goodies..usuallyjunk food..and stay there the whole weekend..
i was an ardent fisher man by that age too....the children of today have forgotten how great the outdoors can be...with videogames...and all my childhood was filled with adventure and joy.. |

And so here you all are, complaining about the kids today and what are you all doing? Sitting in front of a computer all day. I'm as guilty as anyone.
I think I'll go out in the yard and play. |

Kids are given expensive toys and not expected to work-lazy is the word that best describes them in general. anyway!!!

i wasn't given much of anything...
If I weren't a boy, I wouldn't have had anything to play with... |

Kids are 'given' how to act from us.
We need to be collectively decrying our parenting, not their behavior! ...and I didn't even have shoes in the Summer, unless some hand me downs fit. Ever hear the song Coal Miner's Daughter? Well, that was us. And the hills. Don't get me started. |
