(How could they lose interest at a time like this?? "The Lego Batman Movie" and "The Lego Ninjago Movie" were out and filling seats then! )
(I mean physical LEGO. Sure, they watch the movies, but kids play with physical LEGO blocks less and less. )
Probably because they're too busy burning their brains on video games. That's sad. . . I really think Lego is a great impact on a child's life, because it teaches them building skills and creativity (as well as organizational skills if they ever learn to clean up their bricks. ) I really don't like how we as society are depending so much on technology and allowing our children to become addicted to it. It slows brain development and gives us very short attention spans. If I ever have children, I will do everything in my power to raise them as naturally as possible.

Yep. Bad video games. When you see little kids today, on smart phones . . . and then when they don't have them, crying until they get one . . . it's just horrible.
Good job! I will try to do this as well. I'm glad I don't have a phone.
(Judging by the amount of posts you have each day, I may say she's right. )
(Hmph. The problem is, my mom just sees the amount that I visit "boards.net," and basically it visits the site five times during the process of replying . . . so multiply my weekly posting times five and that's how much my mom sees that I visit this site.)

I'm a little scared to see the next generation. It's no wonder so many people have physical, mental, and emotional issues today!
Thanks. Of course, I'm not a parent yet, and I've seen how hard it is. I'll probably stay an old maid my whole life. I have one, but it's a hand-me-down that can't make calls and is really just for taking pictures when we travel and getting YouTube and Roblox notifications.

“Hey,” He looks up, startled by the youngster’s gaze. “C’mon! You definitely need a jacket, a sweater…or something! Let’s warm you up first.”
Again, he stands frozen in place, literally. He struggles to speak, but blankness is all he has.
“Don’t worry. My home, my treat.” The boy pounds his chest, twice, as if in reassurance. He is then taken back once again as the youngster reaches out his hand in a friendly gesture.
“Théo.” “W-what?” He stutters.
“My name is Théo. Or Theodore, really. But everyone calls me Théo. It’s a lot easier for people to pronounce.” The boy explains. “Not sure what my parents were thinking, but everything worked out fine at the end.”
Then, after a short pause, he asks: “What’s your name, mister?” “My name?” He echoes. “I…”
Théo frowns. “Oh, right, you don’t know anything. Well, just tell me once you remember. You don’t want me to call you ‘mister’ forever, do ya?” He teases.
“I suppose not. But,” He grips the boy’s outreached hand and shakes it gently. “Thank you.”
“Save it, mister.” The youngster replies with a mischievous smile. “I still need to ask for her permission.”
“Who?” He blinks.
“My mother, of course.” Théo makes a face. “Let’s hope she doesn’t throw both of us out the door.”

I am scared as well.
You're welJON. I've wondered whether or not to do that as well. (Of course, I wouldn't be a maid. )
