Reflection #1

Something that I have noticed from being around children is that (for the families I nanny for) they are so attached to their games and technology that I think it is somewhat ridiculous. I think the new technology is great students and kids, but I think there needs to be a limit on it. I feel like kids are more and more detached from family and friends. One of the kids I babysit all he does is play video games or watch T.V. I think it encourages children to be lazy instead of getting out. Yes, Wii-fit is great (or so I have heard). It makes working out fun for kids, but why can't mom and dad go out and play tennis or basketball or whatever activity they child wants to do instead of having them do it with the T.V. screen? Anyway, what I am saying is there needs to be a limit on the number of devices in a home and the amount of time spent in front of them.
