    Those of us that grew up in 90/00s or even before but went through this era and due to this era had access to porn only suffered from PMO

    However the kids of today will suffer much more than that!

    Kids / young folks are glued to phones laptops computers and games consoles. You got all these social media gizmo and online dating!

    You very rarely see kids playing out in the streets opposed to 20 years ago!

    The future will lack social depression and anxiety and general interpersonal skills !

    Yeh some might argue you got all the technology to make life easier but there's always side effects and this will be the phase with the biggest side effects!

    I'm only 27 before anyone asks!

    with experience comes wisdom my friend; when I (and likely many others) originally started using the internet, we used it constantly and obsessively, so much so that many people suffered (such as those of us with PIED) and so I doubt children of today will be all that much worse off than what we went through.

    The main lesson in all of this is that we should bring up children with the knowledge to use technology much more wisely than we used to, if someone would've told me all the pain I could, no would endure from all the years of porn and gaming and etcetera I can tell you I would've been much more efficient with my use of technology.

    I also hate it when people bring up interpersonal skills, what people need to understand is that today and likely even more so in the future people likely won't communicate to the same extent via text as they once did, I expect video chatting to become more prevalent and that's pretty much the same as face to face so I doubt it'll hurt people's "interpersonal skills." If anything the ability to talk to far more people in a much faster and more convenient manner will likely make interpersonal skills even more common.

    True, and there is even more stuff messing them up.
    Denatured foods, GMOs, increased radiation (sun, nuclear, wireless), ...

    Considering everything, I am actually positively surprised every time I see kids playing and laughing. It goes to show how robust humans are. But there are too few of them. So help make more and protect them from some of the bad stuffs ;)

    i am merely talking about the freaks who stay indoors and live eat and shit technology!

    I know some freaks that go to school have four hours sleep and then kill computer games every given moment!

    I wasn't referring to video call / use of technology for work purposes . Alot of people use it at work and then are freaks at home with more technology!

    Just look at how many people run and by a brand new smartphone when one comes out just for the sake of a "10mp camera"!

    Or the folks who are on benefits and claim they're poor but have a iPhone 5 or 6 whichever the latest brick there is!

    You're right about educating children in use of technology etc but you're forgetting that kids will work their way round and exploit just like we did...it's human nature! There's no two ways about it!

    Just look at all the posts on these forums on how people worked their way around their family...

    The common saying is "kids these days are clever" - this is a saying for many years and the clue is within the saying itself!

    Part of the problem is that many kids don't have the kind of trust and relationship to their parents they should have. The parents spend too little time on them and just prohibit stuff without sitting down and properly explaining things. They leave too much of the task of raising their children to outsiders who are more interested in making money or have their own agenda. Then the kids use their cleverness to get around perceived pointless prohibitions.
    At least that is how it has been for me.

    this depends on the country you are in.

    for example in the UK we pay shit loads of tax yet living expenses have increased so both parents have to work. But wait a minute there's more single parents out there these days so it's even harder!

    Your parents work hard and pay tax but when they die you will be paying inheritance tax on anything you inherit... there are limits i believe!

    So the whole life cycle is pointless to be honest if you don't even get family time and struggle...

    Yes, pretty messed up. That is what happens if your country is controlled by outsiders who have no real stake and are not intending anything good for it's citizens (Rothschilds).
    Russians pay 13% income tax compared to your 45% and are still getting a better service in most areas. Their leader cares.

    Still, most people should change their priorities some.

    The people are being used like slaves.

    We pay for the wars and we're in debt. There are cuts to the extent that there is no more free health care in the very near future!

    So why shall i pay 30%? Am on long term medication and have to pay for that separately! So what's the point of me paying 700 per month?

    It all goes towards wars nothing else! Where else has the money been spent? Except for ministers expenses!

    At least in the middle east you get tax free pay and company accommodation and sometimes free health insurance! No wonder those people live longer and have better lives..

    Lybia even had free higher education, free electricity, and was spending their money on projects like greening the dessert.
    Of course today it is nothing but a deadly mess anymore. So I guess we in the west at least have the advantage of being relatively save from the manipulated west xD
