Video Response to "YouTube Has Ruined My Life" 06/13/2008

This is a video response to a video I had made and uploaded on 06/13/2008 titled YouTube Has Ruined My Life. I have had a ton of comments on that video and I've been wanting to come on here and talk about it. I also talk about what I think about the importance of children playing outdoors.

so sorry to hear that happened to you. children do need more activity, i don't understand how people can't understand that.

[virginiann1975]

@MissJanieHere Thanks Janie! I know I have heard so many people with weight issues still say that they are the ones with the problem not their children. With that justification they continue to buy junk for their kids not seeing that these children are following right in their footsteps. Thank you for the comment.

You're RIGHT it is sad that kids aren't out playing the way we use to. I have an 11 and 10 yr old...I can't let them out in the front yard alone, never mind "run wild"...lol... people today seem to be more unpredictable and down right scarry... I want my kids safe!!! So, we do go out with them for walks and whatnot, but really...how SAD it is that our kids are not able to take advantage and explore the way we did as kids.

@topCkurvy It is sad, very sad. That is why we need to accompany them. Fortunately for us we can see my grandchildren right from our front yard! My hubby took pictures of him and they look like we were only feet away! Thank you for your comment!

You are so right Virginnia! And boy do I hear you about the kids playing outside thing,. Nowadays people just think some perv is going to take them the minute they're out alone. My childhood was like yours - if I was inside I was being punished! And I raised my kids the same. They had a blast - OUTSIDE!

[virginiann1975]

@cah237 What I don't understand, is even with that thought in mind, why do we hold children hostage in our homes instead of taking walks with them, going for bike rides and other outside activities? If people would realize that fresh air and exercise is not only good for our children, but for ourselves and for the whole family. Thank you for your comment, it means a lot to me!

some people can be cruel idiots.products of the world,

Dont waste your thoughts on their hateful opinions.

I do appreciate your concern though, society is being stupified by our own culture.

presentation can defer investigation....
