Kids nowadays

I, as a kid, still experienced the joy of playing street games especially, marbles, "patintero", "paunpaun", slipper game, etc.. But nowadays, kids don't even want to go out of their way to play. They just sit on a couch and play computer the whole day. These is how technology creates many couch potatoes.

When I was still a kid, I really enjoyed playing street games. I even sneak out of the house just to play them knowing that I would get scolded later. Playing these games made me happier that time. But now, through the influence of computer and television, I only go out to play once a week. I just face the computer and do everything I want with it. I would get tired of going out of the house. Television also influenced me in they way I interact with my friends. We sometimes imitate television actors just for fun, but some of their actions are never forgotten. One of these actions is how we talk to each other. I am proud to say that my parents raised me up as a good child but media influences me in a bad way. I would sometimes forget my parent's teachings and imitate the actor's bad tongue.

What I could to media is that it is bad influences to kids raised as angels although there are also parts of the media that is influences a kid in a good way. Technology is also the reason why the kids are getting lazier every generation. Seven-year old kids nowadays are already playing computer the whole day. When I was still seven, I haven't even touched a computer. I played always played games outside the house.
