Ah, spring--- flowers are peeking, leaves are growing and young grass is coming out under the cold bearing soil...As we took a nice long walk around the park (in shorts!) .... Anyway, here is today's "Walking and Observing".

  2. That's exactly the point, boneuinhoda bic :) I wish the kid could be running with her mother instead of being pushed while playing her game or phone. I think that's precisely why the younger generation is having more problems, sometimes we as parents allow it to happen, and often wonder why it did.

  3. Yeah, welcome to the 21st Century.
    However i think that it´s a good thing that you are shocked by this.
    Even here in Portugal kids don´even play in the street no more.They sit home,play computer games,and eat McDonald´s.
    It´s been a while since i saw cildren climbing trees or playing soccer or some other childish game.
    I´m a bit worried of how their kids will turn out.
    I´ve awnsered you back in my Blog about the Iberian LYnx cubs,Sorry Suni, sometimes things get a little lost in translation.
    And my English is still far from perfect.
    Sorry for the long awnser my friend !

  4. __Looks like Mom could use some deeper excerSIZE too!
    __I remember when I was a youngster, if the phone rang, one of my parents answered. If that call was for me (a rare thing)... when the conversation had ended... I had a bag full of questions to answer. Who? What? Why? When? Where? All the "W" questions. Today... parents don't even know when their child is on the cell phone; in fact, it seems, they don't care.

  5. boneiquinhoda bic, thanks for the thoughts. It's the same thing everywhere, even in my home town kids are growing up with fastfoods and lack of exercise. It's concerning, but ultimately up to the parents.ps. your English skill is excellent, I'm the one who can't spell (literally) :)
    Magyar, thank you for the comment :) I am equally surprised at sometimes how much parents can trust their children with electronic devices like cell phone and computer. I know someone who once gave a computer to the young grand child as a gift and the child actually later refereed to the computer as "a piece of crap" and wanted a bigger one. That sounds to me as the parent had more to do with such complain, and that's why our children today are able to make request after request.
