Thread: The modern kids Christmas

Not new sorry been happening for years .Normaly the little teenage anti parent nazis are locked up in there roomes with door shut
No wonder every macmanshion doesnt have a back yard . Kids of today would never venture to the back yard to play .

You would never know they are home untill they are hungry at tea time

It is not only the kids - my 50 yo sister in law is the same - quite anti-social.

There are 364 other days to be part of life too.

That photo looked just like SWMBO and the daughter at our place John.

Doesn't happen at our place and if it did I would be kicking some arses. We would not allow it.

None of those kids are out getting wasted and crashing into trees at warp speed. They're busily forming networks of like minded friends who will be an integral part of their future lives. When I was 15 all I had was books and TV to escape reality. I envy the modern kids their freedom to communicate in ever increasing ways. Now back to my goofing off on aulro...

Three generations were on their i devices at my family christmas this year.
