    Also agreed. What they often do now is hand them a phone or tablet rather
    >than attempt to entertain them via human interaction. ;(

    Yes, you hear about this stuff but if you don't have access to
    youngsters you really have no idea.. My niece's kids are 11 and 9
    and for several years now when they are up here, she has to chase
    them outside or they'd be laying out on the couch playing games on
    their tablets all day long. And this is, for them, at the cottage.
    You could understand it at their home but up here where there are
    beaches and swimming and water sports and hiking and such..
