Let's blame the others.

It is the easiest way of not recognizing that we are wrong, we will blame the governments of all countries for allowing it to happen, for allowing it to create a problem that we ourselves have created. Let us say that they had not warned us, that there should be more regulation, that of course, these things should not be this way (valid reasoning for any circumstance on which there is no argument), because we, as responsible adults who are, will blame our leaders for not having been able to act on a problem that we ourselves have created. Because for that we, who came home and the first thing we do is look at our smartphone while our children are demanding our attention, have done nothing...

Because now we complain, from the comfort of our smartphones, but we complain that today's young people are hooked to their phones, we? We just watch it for a while... now... and now... and then... it's about work... including that dance I'm watching on a social network! We complain about what we've taught to do, after all it's what we all do, right? Because that's what our smartphones are for, so they can be used constantly, but if others do, you're stuck to your mobile phone all day!

And then we complain about the young people, which no one knows between what range it goes because everything varies depends on the person you ask, we complain that they're connected all day, and we complain curiously through what we're criticizing, there, with a pair. Because if we, as a supposedly evolved society that we are, had educated before we had left, maybe things would be different. We complain about the young people, that they can do nothing but be connected to their mobile phones, you can only play with that little machine! We'll say from our smartphone. And in a way we have been right, after all we should ask ourselves that we are complaining exactly that they are not like us? Luckily, if they become like us we would be criticizing them for not evolving, but we complain about doing what we have taught to do, after all we do it ourselves.

We give a smartphone to our young people take and stop playing the h * *! it's simple: if you don't talk or make no noise it doesn't bother, so they leave me alone to be with my smartphone quietly, doing what I don't want them to do. That this does not mean that all make them, generalize is the first step ignorance, luckily there are young people who are not very fond of smartphones but who we are going to take away because they are rare bugs, after all young people need to socialize and what do we do? Isolate them behind a screen, there, showing no common sense. But we will complain about it, and we will blame our leaders, the easy resource, they will not, after all, face us verbally, if they do not answer it will be because we are right there, taking pride.

And then something happens, are we looking for a solution? We don't want our young people to be connected to a smartphones all day, we just complain, as simple as that or the "not to bother me that it's not my problem," and no, it's not, it's everyone's (nothing). That we will not deny the use of smartphones, after all this will not criticize the use of these devices, we ourselves use them but with common sense. But do we teach our young alternatives? Let it not be something that goes through a screen, not directly, we get home and we get to look at our smartphone being this what our children see, we are a reflection of what they will be, we are what they reflect, if they don't see anything else, what do we expect them to do, something different? Please... We do not teach to choose a book (which is as simple as "the one you like the most"), we do not teach the art of calligraphy, which is curiously so much like but good, that others do, we do not teach to play an instrument, that brings something that we don't want to miss: time with our smartphone. And no, it's not "I'm just looking at one thing," that we know it's "I'm just looking at one thing... and then another... and another... and another," we want you to leave us alone to spend time with our smartphones but not them, we'll criticize them.

We have created a model of youth which we criticize for having taken as a reference to ourselves. A model who's complaining about everything who they've learned... A youth full of frustrations, welcome to social networks, we're going to sink your morality!, a society that the only time they value is the one they spend looking at the screen of a smartphone, because at that time they have left us alone, right? So when they show that they are what we have created, we will criticize them, that simple. Maybe we haven't shown them any alternatives, to manage a time they won't get back, we've released him to a mobile device and come on, you just learn something I could teach you but I won't do because I'm too busy, look, a new dance!

So we're going to complain about educating in the "take-and-shut" field, about cancelling the alternatives, we have them ourselves, but do we take advantage of them? Let me doubt. Because of course no one is talking about cancelling the use of smartphones? It would be absurd and counterproductive, but if you give alternatives, if you give a young person a choice between a smartphone or a book, they will take what we have in our hands, and something tells me that it will not be what has folios.
