The truth is that the child born today is as much a child as the one born a hundred years ago. Whether they were born when horses took them to school, or when school is online. I think we make the mistake of judging the experiences of the children through the eyes of the adults. Today’s child is born into today’s world and is a child today. They no more wish to run the streets rolling tires than we wished to go to the farm during our own time. They love their own experience like we loved ours. They will make the best of it like we did ours. Yes, we would worry about them, just like our parents worried over us and panicked when they heard we created phones that could take pictures, but they will survive, they will thrive.
Today I want to celebrate all the information age children out there, who can operate tech phones before they can recite the complete alphabets; who use words like ‘regurgitate’ at breakfast tables; who make video messages to presidents etc. I think that instead of us stressing out about all the evil we see in the world that they have to face, we should see the hope that their advanced nature gives us. You may not be able to claim you are the smartest person on the family table anymore, but be assured that the child across you is as much the child you were when you were their age.
Happy children’s day!
