Children, the hope of tomorrow

from Dunni and Lola | Feb 19, 2010 Dunni and Lola

The world is changing so fast, considering the jet age we live in today. There are giants steps been taken compared to what it used to be, and the effect will tell on the future of our children. Today, modernisation has influenced our children's life a great deal, and they seem to know too much for their age. The activities that have taken the mind of our children off the essential things that they are suppose to know at this time of their life is going to tell in the future. Our children spend more time on things like MP3 player, ipod, computer games, internet, etc, rather than doing things that will prepare them for a better life in the future. Also, in the past, the family laws of our nation was helpful because children were not exposed to today's technologies, but now that things have changed as a result of advance in technology, there is need for a tighter family law to curb our children of their excesses. If nothing is done to the rate of how modernisation is telling on our children, I can imagine what we expect in years to come. As much as I love what modernisation is doing to the world, at the same time, I think there should be moderation on the things that could ruin the future of our children.

"I think what i have learnt the most about this project is.......wait for it....is SELF BELIEF. If an artist or anyone, writes, sings, dances or sculpts etc and believes they have done a good job, well thats all that matters....i have doubted myself in the past, lacked believing in myself and what i can achieve....”

"We have decided to take Ryan and Naombh somewhere at least once a month and have figured that with our children its best sometimes just to get on a bus or tube and just see what's going on ,sort of exposing them to the arts accidentally there is so much to see and do"
