janetDAYZ Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 Name ONE thing thats different from when you were a kid and what the kids are doing now. When I was a kid... we were recording performances,videos and interviews on vhs with a VCR. Kids Today.... can just use those lil fingers to look that stuff on YouTube in an instant.

Laveaux Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 when I was a kid we actually went outside to play and had to use our imagination most of the time to create games and shit. kids today stay inside and play video games, have no imagination and if they are outside their attention is directed at capturing a moment just to upload it on social media. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Sacred Prostitute Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 when I was a kid we actually went outside to play and had to use our imagination most of the time to create games and shit. kids today stay inside and play video games, have no imagination and if they are outside their attention is directed at capturing a moment just to upload it on social media. It's so sad. It's not their fault. We as the adults need to reintroduce this way of life to our kids. It can be done actually.....it's harder in the bigger cities but in small towns kids are able to grow up like we did. Kids are getting cell phones at the age of 6 now but there are some parents who make them wait until they are 12. I am part of the last generation who use to record music on their cassette tapes off of the radio!!!!!!! That shit was hilarious when you would forget to stop recording after the song was finished and you would hear yourself cut off the recording by saying "Oh shit!" after tripping over some book on the floor......... :lmao: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jodienda76 Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 when I was a kid we actually went outside to play and had to use our imagination most of the time to create games and shit. kids today stay inside and play video games, have no imagination and if they are outside their attention is directed at capturing a moment just to upload it on social media. This is why my kids will have no hand held games. I bought my oldest a wii, but he ONLY plays it after homework is done, two hours, and he has to get it from my room? Install, then when the two hours are up, it goes back in the room. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedSimba Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 I'm fortunate I grew up in the time I did, and no later than that. The 90s was one of the best decades to be a kid - tv shows, music, games were all on point. Technology today has its perks but I sometimes miss those simpler times. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedSimba Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 Oh yeah one thing that's different - I'm from the CD generation. I use to carry ~30 of my favorite CDs for long road trips. Now it all fits on one Ipods which is convenient 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You take the CD out of the case and put the little booklet and CD into the slot. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
