Been watching my 8 and 5 year old nephews this weekend. All these kids ever do is watch weird video game youtube channels all day every day. I took them to a drive in movie last night and a little fair type thing today where they could chill outside and ride horses and shit and all they do is complain about anything that isn't instant gratification. These kids' dopamine receptors are fried. They can't find pleaure in any of the simple things we enjoyed as kids. It's too hot, they're too tired, they don't want to wait in line. They just want to go home and sit inside.
And EAT. The older one is already overweight and all he thinks about is food. He's always hungry and wants a snack an hour after a meal. He got a headache and didn't feel good because "we walked so much" after we were at the fair for like an hour, and weren't even walking most of that time.
Wtf when we were that age we were outside playing all day every day. Climbing trees, playing tag, street hockey and ghosts in the graveyard until the streetlights came on and we never got tired or even noticed being too hot or cold because we were having fun. This kid is also considered normal sized among his peers and he's the same size as the boy we all considered the neighborhood fat kid in the 90s.
Shit is so fucking bleak dude.
