This is a great example of why technology and my generation's parenting is ruining our kids future of socializing and basically respect for past generations. I think four kids actually showed some kind of respect and knowledge of how technology changes. I remember being a young child through the eighties and my adolescence and teen years in the nineties and always understood the past technology was COOL! Like the old rotary style phones, black and white T.V.s, old film projectors, etc. Finding them not Garbage or a Waste like most these kids were saying shows there true laziness and lack of basic intellect, which is common sense.

Granted there were few kids a little too young but you can tell that they are the same path as most those kids. MY GENERATION PARENTING SKILLS SUCK and that is the main problem. I see all the time kids not taught to respect adults, parents trying to be the cool parents and be there friends, and lastly parents passing on technology to keep them busy instead of playing with their kids or having their children go outside.

You know how annoying it is when you soon to be 10 year old daughter keeps bugging for a smart phone because Susy at school just got one and you have to say no you will not get one until you are in high school. Even then it will be a standard flip phone for phone calls and texting.
