How To Help Your Children Grow Up In The 21st Century Kids,
kids, kids will be kids, and it’s ours, the parent’s job, to help show them
how to survive in today’s world. Now kids these days have a lot of
All we had was the good old-fashioned 21 inch TV, now they are 52 inch. Then
along came the VCR and the walkman was in there somewhere. So in those days
there was not too much competition for time. The kids have got mobile phones, MP 3 or 4, email and instant messages, and of
cause the computer and the computer rules. Computer games and the Internet take up a lot of time. Time wasted is never
regained. But some things stay the same like school and homework, and learning to read and
write. Now The Good Old-fashioned Pencil Is In Direct Competition With The Keyboard We never had keyboards but we learnt to use them. Now we have to teach our kids
how to use a pencil. We embraced modern technology. Now we have to reengineer
our kids back to the basics, like using a pen. Anyway we survived and our parents had traumas. Now it’s our turn to have
traumas where our children are at the receiving end. Kids are battling against “Big Money” even before they start to make money.
“Big Money” is invading the school grounds, like a wolf in sheep’s
clothing, as unobtrusively as the humble vending machine. Designed to take your
money and turn your beautiful little son or daughter into an overweight blob
destined to join the obesity movement. We as parents have to keep watch and inform our offspring about the dangers of
“Big Money” and how its very presence in the school grounds can go unnoticed
until it is too late. It is everywhere where some corporation is out to take your money. It is most
noticeable in advertisements, on billboards, magazines, newspapers and TV and it
is very persuasive. Kids have no chance and we parents don’t have much chance either, so we have
to be aware and guard against the seduction of “Big Money.”
And that means informing our kids so they will not be caught up in the
tangling tentacles of “Big Money”. Something else we parents have to be aware of and that is the constant bureaucratic bungling that is a part of politics in this vast country. Politicians wanting to leave their mark on immortality by introducing some exceptionally stupid new bill, so they can go down in history as the person who changed the illiteracy rate.

################################################# We can see that now with whole language verse phonics and all the garbage the
whole language advocates have come up with to justify a lowering of the literacy
rate to what it is today. Then we
have to put up with political inertia as nothing is done to change the
situation. And To top it Off We Have Global Warming And Peak Oil Just when we thought it was safe to bring up kids we find the world is changing and the changes are not good. Our kids will be growing up in a warmer world and by the sound of it, one without any energy as we have used up most of the cheap oil. So what is a parent supposed to do! We parents have to take charge of our children’s lives and do our best to
keep our children on the straight and narrow. Your guide through the beginning of the 21st Century is Peter Legrove. plegrove@animalsdinosaursandbugs.com PO Box 22599. Otahuhu. Auckland. New Zealand
