As we all know, necessity is the mother of invention, but as we laughingly advance, necessity disappears over the horizon with it's arse on fire as we are left to be cosseted by the electro mechanical machine known as technology. We're heading for Wall-E status, driven by too much personal greed and little spirituality, so how do we address this? Maybe we should start by giving our children a childhood with natural challenges, for the tougher our start in life, the more resilient and balanced we'll be as adults.
The first seven years of a child's life will shape them forever, so a little adversity will help. I'd not let a child have video games or a mobile phone before the age of seven. The thought of a developing child spending 30 hours a week playing X box is pretty alarming, add to that a device that saves you physically interacting with your peers and you're on a slippery slope.
This world is screwed and unfixable, but maybe the next generation must take some retrograde steps to restore a stable society.
Please add your own wisdom.
