What happened to kids these days? Remember when we were younger that we to be outside to ride our bikes and play games like "Kick the Can?" I do. It was so fun getting all the neighborhood kids together to play. It was so much fun those days.Nowadays, kids seem more focused on playing on the computer and video games. My son is no exception. My could spend hours on his X-Box 360, if I let him. Not only that, he talks about them constantly. Kinda drives me nuts. He likes to play those fantasy games and has his system hooked up to the internet so he can talk to his friends. SIGH. Getting him off is like pulling teeth. He'll protest and whine about it. Of course, that what kids do.
The past couple of days he has been getting better. We went out for dinner and took long car rides. We talked about things other than video games. He's pretty smart! He knows a lot about history and science. There's hope for my son. Gotta love him. :)

You are really right about kids Drew , I myself see small children wearing spectacles at such a tender age, and there's just like a handful of kids playing out in the park too.... The next Tech generation has arrived it seems, but they are also much smarter and much intelligent too ! ( I'm also not really big too :) hehe)
While it may be nice that my son is video game whiz; it would be nice for him to outside and play. I think he needs more of a social life.
I've got this friend, a couple years older than me. And I swear the dude still lives to game on his PS3. I've got a PS3, I enjoy using it from time to time. It's a nice little distraction to destress with and what not. But that's all it is to me. With some folks it seems almost more a way of life.
Perplexo, I don't even know how to play video games. The hand controls are all Greek to me...
