Sadly true. This morning on the train I saw a small child, maybe 4-5 years old, with his parents. He was so excited, looking out the window, chattering happily and interacting with the parents. It suddenly dawned on me that no one was on cell phones and how rare that is these days.

The saddest thing is seeing a parent in a park with their little kid and the kid is trying to talk to them, or do something to get their attention and the parent is just staring into a phone 😢
@janemick99
Ай бұрын
Maybe the parent is juggling monitoring work remotely so they can actually be at the park? Or maybe doing an online grocery order so they can go to the park instead of the supermarket. Maybe they are doing their banking so they don’t have to take their child to the bank. Maybe they are booking an appointment for their child?

Not pictured, the war on 'hanging out with your friends without parents'. Seriously, no parent trusts their kid to walk home alone, go to the park alone, catch the bus to their friends house alone. All the kids in the suburbs live so far away from each other the only way most of them can connect is via a screen. Unless they want to nag their parents to drive them to a different location, have their parents wait around for them, then drive them back. It's really sad... Need more walkable cities/communities so this sort of thing can happen again.

My wife won't let our 9yo ride to soccer practice 700m away and cross one local road (not a quiet one, but not busy either). After another argument, her 'compromise' is that I can cross the road where the park is, and then let him go on. After soccer, same again. And his best friend still sleeps in mommy's room, and now she's recently separated.
@ButterflyBandit88

@@Matt123a it's sad isn't it? It's because cars don't stop to save people, but pedestrians do. If there where more people walking to your soccer practice I'm sure she wouldn't mind as much because then it would be safer, but unfortunately we ditched walking for cars. Maybe if some of his friends joined him for the walk? Like they meet up at your place instead of soccer and then all walk over together?

Well, im from Switzerland and it isn’t any better here. I was born in 1958, I walked to school (1 km) from day 1. When I turned 13, I had to take a bus to go to school in a nearby town…never a question of mummy driving me ( had gone to ballet practice to this town at the age of 7 already and was very proud of it). My best friend lived in another suburb than me, we went to see each other all the time. Parents should trust their kids more

True. Best part was not having to buy a 40 cent train ticket because there was never anyone to either buy them from or hole punch them if you had one. Then we’d spend the money on lollies and walk a further 2km home instead of taking the bus.

@andreagriffiths3512 It's been a long, long time since I used to scab dropped paper tickets off the railway platform. In case an inspector was on the train. There was some kind of colour coding system back last century, which I never really grasped. Now I've remembered the day I was nabbed with a pocketful of already used tickets. Thanks for reminding me!! 😐

Maybe you people should have had kids if you dont like the current situation. The percentage of households with kids have cratered, partly due to the aging population and partly due to people not having children. The children today live in a desert of people their age while being sandwiched between the elderly and dinks who own everything in between and put up no trespassing signs
