I like your list, very much. I would add television, video games, and other "indoor entertainment" especially as/when aimed at young people who, in my generation, would have spent the majority of their childhood out-of-doors-- playing, fishing, hunting, camping, playing sports, beating each other, what have you...
One of the greatest evils when it comes to health is inactivity, and we are the most static society in the history of the planet, bar none. It is especially dangerous to the young, who thus begin life with unhealthy patterns and habits that can contribute to obesity in a big way. Once obese, even less activity usually occurs, and the young person just contiues to spiral downard. So sad.
This is such wonderful input! Thanks 🤝
I agree that these indoor entertainment options are very restrictive when I comes to a child entering full bloom. I am so thankful that at least for the first 15 years of my life, technology did not have me within its close reach. I can only imagine going 40+ years without having any technological addictions.
Inactivity results in spinal issues. Once the spine starts to weaken, our entire being begins to dwindle along with it. It is key to develop healthful habits during adolescence. If not, we risk making it that much harder on ourselves to do so later in life.
Right on, bro. It's almost like we are raising our children on the I.S.S.
What a quirky comparison. I love it! I can imagine the occasional view up there on the space stations is the most NATURAL experience.
