Sometimes, I just sit back and wonder if this generation of children are really enjoying their childhood. Some of us who are older 馃榾 understand the real meaning of play better than the children of this century.
Who remembers ten-ten, police and thief, tinko-tinko, our grandmother likes to wear skirt, jangolova? Those games. Then, we would play and play and come back home all messed up. Our mothers would shout and shout but it would enter the right ear and come out from the left. The next day, we come back home dirtier. That is life. I miss those days when we played without thinking of who would wash the clothes.
Children of this generation cannot relate. The best game they can think of is computer car racing game, or snake game, or even chatting. In their leisure they surf the internet. Boring life. They don't know what play really is o.
A modern child goes to school and comes back with clean socks. In my days, who did that?!
I think parents should let their children play the real play at least once in a while. Car racing is nothing compared with 'boju-boju'. As much as mental exercise is good, physical exercise is equally good. So, give them space to run around sometimes.
