If you could un-invent something, what would it be?

I would happily uninvent computer games.

If you are a grandparent I don’t even have to explain why. Last weekend I was at my third daughter’s house for the weekend her 14 and 12 year old sons never went outside. All they wanted to do was play games.

I know I am old fashioned, but I just believe being outside is good for the soul and body. No one was killing or destroying people when we played outside. We were creative and used our imagination and muscles to have fun. We loved to ride bikes, build forts, skip rocks and have expensive birthday parties at the skating ring.

In the summer we had to work in the garden. We picked beans, corn and all our own vegetables. We didn’t have to buy organic anything! After we finished all our chores my brother and I could go swimming in our Grandpa’s lake with our cousins.

I can just imagine what my Grandpa would do if we was sitting in the house playing games all day! Oh my!!!
