In no way was I a neglected kid. Parents still spent a huge deal of time with me, dad taught me drawing, astronomy, English, played guitar for me, we listened to music together, played games, walked together, printed photos, rode snow slegde downhill in the winter. Me being allowed to spend time outdoors with my friends was perfectly a part of their caring, not an attempt to get rid of me.

This is in stark contrast with the way parents want their children to be near and observed, but separated with black mirrors.

Now, please don't think that I blame every modern parent out there. There are enough good parents around even today. What I talk about are the trends in general.
