Agree with you 100% Gilda. As much as reading is a good thing, experiencing life from all it's angles is something that is missing in kids these days.
I don't know how old you are but when I was a kid, my friends and me would use our imagination to create an environment we liked in common. Kid's don't do that anymore. When's the last time you saw kids throwing a baseball or frisbee for the fun of it?
It doesn't exist anymore. Everything is catagorized within an activity and life is an organized entity brought forth by parents who feel they have to create a significance in terms of activities rather than letting them forge their own path.
Why? Paranoia. A sense that todays kids can't deal with reality? It's nothing and everything all in one. It's to bad really but change is change
