Tracking Down the Pokémons, Seeking Out the Dreams, on Parent-Child Interactions

Following the trend here, translated…

Awhile ago, Pokemon Go became available for download here in Taiwan, making my daughter, who usually sleeps in during the summers, at her older brother’s hollering, hopped out of bed. It’s fine, that just the kids were into it, and now, my wife became a player too, she’d volunteered to go out with my on my morning jogs, and, the normally fifty-minute exercise trip took over an hour to complete, because I’d needed to constantly stop, for my wife, to capture the Pokemons.

This trend, was blowing in the exact opposite direction with the SARS “trend”, back then, NOBODY dared going out, Taipei became, an unpopulated city, and now, everybody is getting out, wherever the Pokemons were found, that, is the spot to be, and it gets more and more populated, as the night draws on.

That evening after supper, the four of us arrived at the “hot spot” in my neighborhood, and, my wife and children were so totally excited, gone out of my sight, chasing their Pokemons, leave me, the uninvolved, head of the household, all alone, sitting, on the park benches, keeping guard over, a bottle of water, two towels, and three rechargeable batteries.

not my animation…

So, this, is what happens, after the trend of Pokemon Go hit your family, huh, and, you saw the changes in routines in your children, your wife’s behaviors too, and, you still can’t quite say, if this, is something good or bad yet………
