[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What's the big deal? Was every minute of your summer scheduled with parents entertaining you in your downtime for 3 straight months whenever you were a kid?

Summers were supposed to be about boredom. Lots of biking riding, book reading, and bad TV. Now they have Netflix, much better video gaming systems, and friends to text with 24-7 without tying up the one phone line in the house. They'll survive just like I survived in the 90s.[/quote]

That's what I've told mine.  They get to experience an "old school" summer where you sleep until 11, eat lunch, head to the pool (backyard if our neighborhood pool doesn't open) until 4:30, and then head home to have dinner with your parents.

That was literally how almost every day of my summer went until I was old enough to get a job.  Then toss in some days of working and that was my summer along with some mall trips and movie trips.

So far, every camp they normally do during the summer has canceled.  Two of the four that have jobs have lost their summer jobs as well.  [/quote]
