MadCow1: [b]Kids Go outside and play?!


What happened to their X-Box One and Playstation 4 or their PSP Go and Nintendo DS?



Playing outside is outdated yo!

When last did you see a kite in the skies?

My kid brother is 12 years old and has never;
rolled a tyre outside,
made knock-out from paper,
made a paper gun,
played Police and thief inside uncompleted building,
made and tried to fly a paper-kite,
Hunted Lizards and squrrels outside,
played early morning peppersoup,
constructed and rolled a 'borres' (local toy car made with car bearings),
Made a Knock-out with Spark-plugs,
Made 'okoso' from Tiger-batteries and pen cover,
tried to make a local telephone with hair thread and matchbox,
Tried to learn how to do a back-flip,
tried his hands out at 'chinese-bending',
Played Ninja with wooden sticks and a cloth around his head,
Played that gane where you have to cross your fingers or if you get caught, you recieve a slap to the back of your hands.
Played counter-ball
Played 'Nearest to the wall',
Played in the rain,
Tried to sail his paper boat inside a gutter with flowing water after a rain storm,
e.t.c



But he presently owns; A Playstation 1,2,3 & 4, X-Box 360 & 1, Nintendo 64, Gameboy color, Game Bay Advance, Ds, D XL, PlayStation PSP, PSP GO, and has played almost every game that there is to play on these consoles. Its funny, but I recognise that the times have changed. Infact, the closest I saw kids play outside in my neighbourhood was to ride their bicycles, roller-blade and sit on their fences and wirelessly play their Nintendoes against each other.

Now thanks to the internet, they dont even need to leave their rooms to play with each other again. The last time I visted with my brother, he was playing Call of Duty Ghosts with over 5 friends and yet he was the only one sitted in his room with just a Pad and a headphones talking to himself and seriously focusing like he was in a room full of people.

I remember when my mum saw all the kids sitting on the fence playing Nintendos, My mum was like; Whats happening here, I told here that they were playing, she said how? I said they are playing wirelessly against each other.. She was so stunned!

Welcome to the new world my dear.. The expectation for kids are higher now. A kid wakes up by 6 and is at school till 5pm with barely 2hrs of break inbetween. My brother had to do School, extra-classes, Home-teacher, Saturday was Teakwando practice and Drama rehersals for school plays.. My kid sister was also the same with Saturdays being Ballet lessons and Music classes.

I saw a Chinese Kid on youtube who had mastered so much at his tender age it was shocking.

The truth is that the times have changed greatly from what it used to be.. I remember when we hunted lizards in the neighbourhood until they almost went extinct.



This is one of the leading causes of the increase in obesity in children. [/b]

Kessleek: GUY ZOOOM!!!

Gozzzy: Naija don dey gradually turn to rough play, I swear!!!!!!

Enahi: Oh my God. I remembered how I and my elder sis mixed Omo into a glass cup and gave it to the housemaid,immediately the girl came into the kitchen we gave it to her and told her it was ice cream the mumu girl took it and drank little out of it and spat it out. We couldn't help but laugh at her stupidity. . There was a day my elder sis went to the kitchen and took the bottle of ketchup poured it on her body and acted dead,my mum had to come back to the house to find out what happened she was so worried eh. There was a day I attempted to fry plantain,the frying pan caught fire and all I could scream was Oh my goodness,Oh my goodness. My mum heard me screaming Oh my goodness she came into the kitchen and turned off the Gas and she was like you want to burn yourself and the whole house and you stood there saying Oh my goodness. There was a day I woke up very early in the morning,left my room went downstairs to the kitchen and went straight for Sugar cane. I attempted to cut the sugar cane with a big knife,the type that butchers use in cutting meat. I ended up cutting a little part of my skin,I couldn't scream or shout because I knew my mum might beat me for what I did,so I kept quiet but blood was gushing out from my hand and my elder sis noticed so she had to call my mum and my mum now applied Iodine on it. It was so painful eh.

annoymous: Mine. Note 3

matify: Inasmuch as the capture of Balmo forest is a welcomed news, I am of the view that the main battle in this war on insurgency still lies with the complete liberation of the dreaded Sambisa forest.

if I were Minima, I would have Mapped the Sambisa into four sectors and launched a 4-prong attack on it with Ariel attack helicopter support to each sector. This should be commenced simultaneously to avoid regrouping of the beligerants.

I guess the continuous perpetration of this war and its protracted nature is helping to enrich some corrupt military and political scalawags.

This war is not going to be a walk in the park but a rodeo ride hence the full commitment of the govt. In motivating and equipping the military should not be in doubt.

Well done our gallant men and Woman in uniform and may that" victory That comes from God" be yours .

Afam4eva: I guess it's a culture thing. Nigerians are backward. I'm sure when they saw, you they classified you as a **** without knowing that it's normal when you come from. If i were to use my Nigerian otti to judge Mauritian girls then 90% of them are sluts because most of them wear tattoos, nose rings and wear bikini on the streets close to the beach and the ones that want to cover up, wear bump shots or hot pants. When you get close to these people you'll discover that they're just normal and not slutty like their physical appearance may want to depict.

Leetunechi: Hahaha
