Is that what's happening to our children now that they have been given the internet rather than the family fireside conversation?

For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.Our children are all very internet savvy but totally interact with our grandchildren, if not in a ‘fireside conversation’ but definitely in lots of one to one, the same as we did with them when they were young. And the same as I did with my parents.
We didn’t necessarily play games but we did enjoy each others company and chatting to each other, I remember some very deep conversations with my parents, who, I think, were ahead of their time.

I think I was thinking about the kids who grow up to stab to death other kids, influenced by their lack of human contact in their infancy - pushed along in their buggies while their mums gabble on their phones, left to play in alone with their smartphones, watching god knows what. Oh, what a gloomy man I am!
Never had a fireside conversation with my family.
Mind you had central heating from age 4 so bit of a problem.
I do see where you are coming from Atheist, but I think that always happened - remember latch key kids? No one knoew what they were up to.
Also 'in the old days' you got hard time for breaking into a meter now you get a slap on the wrist for knifing someone.
