No school on the holidays, there’s, NO homework assignments like we used to have them, what, will we do, with all of our, free time??? From the head of the counselor’s office in an elementary school here, from the Front Page Sections, translated…
The winter vacation had begun for elementary and middle school, are your children still keeping that regular routine? A lot of the children, if they aren’t at the afterschool programs, not gone on trips with their parents, not involved in winter camps, mostly, they’d, squatted at home, watching T.V., playing on their high-tech devices, spent their days and nights, upside down, not eating the meals regular, and, a lot of the parents felt tried as their young are on break in the winters or in the summertime.
instead of encouraging this
The children now rarely head to the libraries to read, they don’t go out to the parks to play, don’t play sports at the sports park, plus the weather’s too cold, it’s not safe, a lot of parents would feel ill-at-ease letting their children go outside, so, the children started, squatting at home playing on the high-tech devices.
In the virtual world, in order to kill off the enemies, you need to strike them fast, fierce, and furious, to kill them off quickly; and, pressing down that “reset” button, what’s killed comes, back to life again. There are too many violent games that that children are playing these days, they’d easily, confuse the reality with the virtual world, and there are, many more instances of bullying and violence in the society, leading to, more and more tragedies happening all around us.
How do we keep our children away from the virtual world, this, is the most important job of parents. Otherwise, after a summer, it wouldn’t be JUST their bodies which got bent out of shape, their minds would be, bent out of shape as well.
For the children who aren’t in the afterschool programs, or on trips, or in the winter camps, the parents can encourage them to head back to the schoolyards to play some sports, to exercise. Even if it’s the vacation, there would still be the teachers who are, working in the offices on duty, going to have a conversation, or helping with cleaning up the environment at school, these are, good things the children can do, because the children in the school yards are safer, and healthier, and the parents don’t have to worry as much over them.
try to get them to do this…
Because the parents don’t get their winter vacations like their young, that is why, their children are mostly left, unattended in these times, and, if you don’t find something for your kids to do, they’re, more than likely, to get into trouble, so, it’s important, to get your children to have that routine of working out regularly, so they will have something to carry them over until school starts again.
