Yardy, I agree with you totally. Something is very different about our mentality today. We are savages and our priorities are screwed up. It used to be "get an education", stay in school" study yuh book, do your homework, Our values have gone astray. When I came home from school each day, I like the ALL of the kids on my street, had a set amount of time to play and climb mango trees, but homework had to be done first and my butt in bed by a certain time. That was the norm. Our kids are growing up too fast and I cannot blame anyone but the parents and when an 8 yr old is asking for a cell phone (mind u with no objection from his parents) that does nothing to promote his awareness or intelligence, it signals something very wrong with our values. I am convinced that adults are putting material possessions over raising their kids. Plain and simple and like a disease, their kids will catch it too. Last time I went home, I saw my 13 yr old cousin, using the instant messenger for hours upon end. I just could not understand why all these trivial pastimes are so unlimited and the valuable opportunities for learning so non-existent.
