I often hear parents complain about how  all their kids do is sit in front of the TV.  Or play X box and play station.  They always on their Tabs!!!!!!
Simple questions I would like answers to
1. When did you last put your gadget down?
2. Did you ever take a ball and say let’s go play outside?
3. Sunday is family day or do u relax i  you bed with your gadget while the rest of the family does the same….
The problem is not with our kids , IT IS WITH US!!!!
We have chosen the EASY way out. Instead of choosing to DO SOMETHING with our kids , we have chosen to keep our children entertained so we can REST!!!
We provide food, clothing , shelter but not our TIME.
We have come to fool ourselves into believing, that is enough, and they should be greatful  for ALL we doing.
Yet when we wake up  one day and decide , they need memories like we had when we were kids, like going to the dam ,or going to the park, playing cricket in the streets, swimming in a public pool. So we get ready and expect our kids to just follow suit…….
When our kids are not so excited or enthusiastic, Â we go all CRAZY and pass comments like
ALL YOU DO IS PLAY ON THE TAB!!!!
YOU ONLY ON YOUR PLAY STATION! !!
This my friends is not a one day fix!!! Years of damage can not be fixed by only your eagerness to change, and it is not going to change by a simple ONE day out door activity.
Follow my blog so we all can improve our lives.
Today and till my next post,
Simply put you gadget down when your kids are around you. Reduce your time on jg before you can ask them to reduce their time.
NB: if the WhatsApp message is really important , they will call you!!!!
