Kids and Technology

Thanks for the guest post by Jonathan Curtis

Some days when I look at my kids I can’t believe how much things have changed since I was their age. They are good kids, but they have so much more than my husband and I had growing up. We didn’t grow up poor, but we didn’t have access to all of the technology they do. I feel like it distracts them from all of the activities they should be doing. They each have their own laptop with clear wireless internet, and they are on them all the time. They also have an Xbox that they love to play. I can’t complain since they are good students and work hard, but sometimes I think they are missing out. I wish they would go outside and run around and have fun like we used to do. During the spring and summer months I was rarely inside hanging out with my parents. I hope that when they get into high school they will care more about making friends and being away from us. We are definitely ready for a break from having them around all the time!
