What Is Fun Anymore? Changing the definition of fun

[DodgyPhil 1]

I know this isn't the argument at hand but.. It's the older generation's fault. I'm 16, and I'm aware that I'll sound like an ungrateful child, but I didn't choose how to be raised. Neither did I choose how my generation was bought up, or how the world was sold to us. We didn't ask for electronics- greedy corporations and a swathe of lazy parents handed these things to us and said, "This is fun".I currently work around three hours a night in preperation for my GCSEs which have apparently been 'dumbed down'. I didn't ask for them to be made easier, but the British government- averagely aged 50- decided it would get more kids into University, and send them off to unsuspecting employers with Mickey-Mouse qualifications in a vein attempt to boost the economy.The only time I see my family is when I share a 30-minute meal with them whilst watching television. I was raised well, and my parents are madly keen on old-fashioned 'ideals', but with the workload and the temptation to use electronics as a release, I don't have the time for them or conventional 'fun'.Children of the sixties, hang your heads in shame. Just kidding, we're cool.On an unrelated note, I enjoy being told that "Drugs are bad" by people who probably smoked dope more than me. I know for a fact that my mum and dad smoked constantly through University in the 70s, and Jacqui Smith (the god awful government worker who reclassed Cannabis as a grade B drug) single-handedly consumed the world's weed supply during her school days.

Fun can be anything. For me fun has no particular definition. If your kid is enjoying something badly ,It is the perfect activity for kid.
