[@grape3587]

It’s kind of a balanced curve. People on the upper end socialize less because of a higher priority of how you are presented to the entire world rather than to just those around you. But people on the lower end socialize more as their options for friends are not limited by those who are around them. Now it’s not the most healthy to only have online friends but it’s better than having no one at all.

There was cases where some parents got their teens a phone and sometimes the bill will come in the thousands of dollars and the bill will come with a booklet of EVERYTHING that was texted and recieved. It scared many parent on getting the phones. Once the first smart phones came out and the plans started with unlimited talk and text became the new norm, thats what became what it is today.

The big change from computers to the phones of today happened in my youth and it really didn't change much. Sure the memories are different but they're still great. Also: I remember 2019 as pretty much the best year I've had. I had a big friend group and we met up like every day. It was amazing.. Exept I have a journal where I expressed how much I feared they all hate me. How much I hate myself. My eating disorder and body issues where at their worst point. Yet looking back without reading my journal it seems like the best time of my life. I wasn't there in 2000, but I'm sure it wasn't all rainbows and sunshine either. As long as you provide a safe/healthy home EVERY childhood will seem like the best one.

You see the wasted years, the missed opportunities, the paths you took and where they have lead and all those possible paths narrow onto the one your on and there are not too many forks in the road left for a diversion.

@@5crassrocker in some places sure but the thing about malls, they have simply shifted to sporting events, restaurants, peoples houses. Outdoor events still happen constantly. I can drive down the road right now and see hundreds of people at sporting events at the junior high up the road. You point to malls like they are the only hang out. Malls were never enjoyable even when I was younger. Friends and I went and played sports. The fact you select only malls in my statement shows your ignorance and bias. Also side note, malls here are still alive and well. In fact my kids have the ability to meet up with kids even easier with technology than I did. If I missed a phone call when I was younger I would miss at hoc events but now everyone is reachable.

@@boomson3082 I'm from a smaller island. Our mall is long gone. Our skatepark is also gone. They built hotels on our favorite surf spots and it's now packed with people. So no, it's not the same as it used to be.

The last decade where kids had to communicate face to face. Everything upfront, direct and not behind a screen. Glad I was able to experience even just a little bit of it

Bro that still happens it's not like people now have they're face glued to their phone saying nothing

[@endert1099]

Kinda same, almost everyone i knew still never had tech till about 2017, with doesn't exclude face to face, but it makes it much harder, i moved from New York to Brisbane a while ago but i still try to make an effort to talk to them in person when i visit.

​@Ezaliasnotoreel i would bet money your earliest memories were in 2015 on an ipad

I wish I was apart of it. I don’t have a phone and I’m 13. I’m always left out on social media things and every kid doesn’t even care about each other. And if we do one stupid thing on camera, someone will spread rumors 🙄😭
