RE: The Journey from Child to Adult

in #life7 years ago

Great message and great post. The realities of responsibility and adulting often include tunnel vision blinder goggles. The slow grueling monotonous motion through a system that has no sympathy and to the financial obligation that burdens the majority, banality drowns out the dreams and imagination of many. What I also wonder, as another part of your post hints at, what generations of children will be like thirty years from now. Where my generation, that of the 80's, we had no instant endless internet streaming, or the ample amount of technologies at our finger tips that captivate children's attention these days. We utilized and relied on our imagination to vanquish monsters, fly over mountains, and live wild adventures without being allowed to leave the house. Kids these days are hardwired and addicted to be plugged in to modern devices. What kind of future effect will this result in?

I really liked your comment. If it is very true every time the technology is wrapping us much more and almost children do not play as before everything is based on consoles and cell phones. I do not know how they will be 30 years from now, but if I'm sure that their imagination will be the same, when they play they focus a lot on the game and imagine that they are living this digital adventure and sometimes when they have nothing technological, revive those games before. I do not know if you got to see the last "toy story" movie, where the child had a lot of toys but did not play with them, all day was in his virtual reality console and at a time when the toys disconnect the console is given account that there on the floor was the toy and revived that imagination again <3

Interesting, I have not seen the newest "Toy Story." I suppose imagination is something that can't be lost, but grows stronger the more it is exercised. I wonder if there is some advantage to playing video games, like using strategies, solving puzzles, and brain stimulation.

If there is, playing video games is the best because it helps your brain develop more reflections and stimulates to find solutions faster, grabbing more agility in many things, that is why some children know how to handle more phone than their parents. to play is to learn even if it does not look like that

Makes sense. Gotta keep that mind sharp and stimulated- exercise the cranium.

play is great <3 I like a lot the games of mental agility and strategy, are my favotritos and you?
