Dependence on cell phones and computers in the contemporary world is at absurd levels. Although I can still be without these things (although I don't seem), I can control myself more about stirring electronic devices. Of course going without much time is complicated, I see the phone as a security when I'm on the street or the like, because it is with him that I use GPS to go to places further or, in an emergency, need to contact someone, call police or firefighters, for example.
But I am the type who sees that it takes a balance in everything, but in everything and that excessive use of screens is not good for anyone. My life is a struggle with my children's wishes, because in their minds, still very innocent, the phone is all that has fun and I really try to stipulate schedules and everything, but controlling this new generation is complicated. It reminds me a lot that when we go out in a family, they are always with cell phones in hand, which pisses me off a little to tell the truth.
Sunday morning, we usually go out early to eat pastel and, when we sat on the table, there are my children and my wife stirring on my cell phone and I just eye. When they spend a few minutes, I simply say, "Do we leave home for you to move on mobile phones?" This really pisses me off because at home we barely talk, whether because of work, busy life, lack of time, so much to do in a short time, so, with that, I barely talk to my children or wife. Now, when we go somewhere, they do the same and stuck to cell phone? My God, how frustrating this becomes.
So I always try to talk and say that when we are doing something like this, the four of us, that we can really do, live that moment, because I value this a lot. Sunday has been my most off day, sometimes I get on my cell phone early and then I will only take a new look at night. I believe many here have noticed that Sunday day disappears from Hive and on occasion, even on Saturday, I already have. I started disappearing from the networks more often on weekends, to rest my mind of so much I see in them.
With that, I can say that I can stay away from the phone and my computer, I believe I have a good self -control over it. As I came from a time and generation that had no cell phone since birth, I still remember the moments of joy with friends, in the presence, in fun, there in the same place, leaving everything aside and only surrendering to the moment. It's like I talk to my children, I tell them to drop their cell phone and, with that, go to live, play, have fun with their friends, because in the future this will be missed.
Finally, I believe we have to really try to look for the balance between one thing and another, removing mobile phones from children or adult life is complicated, even for reasons of security, but we can talk and try to show that it takes a moment of dismissal, to enjoy what exists in reality, around you, with your friends and family. I think that, in this way, we can enjoy life in the most balanced way possible.
