I feel bad for the generations that have to grow up in this America – I really do. Take for instance… Playing outside? Kids are like “what is that – what is the meaning of this? We stare at an “outside” through a video game”. Fresh air? “No no no, we stay in nice A/C with our video games”. Mud? “Ew that’s gross and dirty”. Playing with sticks pretending you’re a pirate? “What am I mental? Ill look like a weirdo”.
Now-a-days, a child knows more about my cell phone than I do – and he’s 6 years old… How to update a computer or phone? Forget about it – not a clue! Its called you click ignore until it does something… I don’t know. But lets really talk about this dilemma we have going on here. It’s called Americans are Fat-asses! And hey I am not saying I am better – my fat-ass will sit with a bag of Doritos binge watching NCIS in bed wishing I was as cool as Ziva. [if you don’t know who Ziva is, you’re an idiot and have a sucky life]. So I fall in the same category, BUT! This is a dilemma and a [literally] HUGE problem. We have fucking 5 year olds walking [or getting strolled] around with cell phones! Like not just dial phones but like smart phones… Reeaallyy? I didn’t get my first cell phone till I was about 13-14 and it was one of the first cell phones [you know those massive block-looking phones] yeah now you know how old I am – oops! You get the point though… I hope… if not you should probably go get a head exam. Anyways… I get it though – now-a-days things are a little more… dangerous I guess because of the sex offenders and baby snatchers. But if that’s the case a 5 year old doesn’t need to have the newest smart phone. Let me tell you what happens when you give a young child a smart phone. 1. They are constantly on it – playing [non-educational] games. 2. If you try to take it away from them for punishment reasons – lock yourself in the cellar because you will NEVER hear the end of that until you give it back. 3. It adds waaayyy more money to your phone bill each month, especially if you hooked that phone up with the play store thingy– don’t be dumb and add your credit card. And last but not least #4. Your child has about a 99.9% chance of being a spoiled brat with it especially if you do not monitor the use of it at all. Listen, I am not saying that kids spend all their time inside on video game –stuff- I know a lot of parents make their kids play soccer, baseball, football and such – I am more speaking about how when I was a kid my parents used to have to chase me down the street with a lasso to catch me to come inside for dinner. I know I know “times have changed” but was the times that have now “changed” changed for the better or worse? If you think about it the obesity rate in America from 1990 to now the obesity rate has gone up to about 37.9%, that’s bad. Then hear this, one in every six children (ages 2-19) are obese — and one in every 11 young children (ages 2-5) are obese. That’s REDICULOUS! If we implemented more physical activity – playing outside with the neighborhood kids or just being a “weirdo” outside pretending you’re a pirate. Do something, get off that fucking couch – put those fucking Doritos away and go for a walk or play a [physical activity] game outside – if you got kids fucking drag em out there with ya. Come on and lets beat obesity you fucking lazy fat-asses!
