Kids and the internet
#4
I moved to a different state the summer between 7th and 8th grade, and we lived in a apartment the first couple months while our house was being built. Strange town, no friends, and no kids around to hang out with. I watched WAY TOO MUCH TV those couple months. We didn't have cable, and this was pre-VCR/DVD, and I remember being so bored that I found myself wishing for a channel with a constant stream of shows that interested me. I can't imagine how pathetic I would have been if I'd actually had one!

I STILL feel guilty thinking about how lazy I was that summer. What were my parents thinking not taking me to the library or making me do something productive?!?!? In comparison, I think my kids are handling these temptations pretty darn well. I guess they are too busy with school and activities to get sucked in.
