1. What is this article about?

This article is about trying to teach your brain to want to learn. Its about how parents shouldn’t always give you your wants and needs. You should be training yourself to do the laundry, and clean the dishes. The article is telling you to learn certain  duties and work ethics now so you have no problem or questions when the times comes when you have to do it all alone.

2. What you agree with / what you disagree with:
What I agree with:
- I agree that kids should hep there parents for often at home. So they learn how to do those things when they’re much older.
- I agree with giving them more nutritious foods and giving less junk food.
-I agree with less video games, and phones. They should go outside more and socialize with people face to face then on a screen.
What I disagree with:

- I don’t disagree with anything.

3. How does this article apply to you or someone you know?
My friend josh is in the band for his school and focuses really hard on that. I feel like this article can help him because he tends to drift off when it comes to school work.

Overall the article is about how we should raise our kids and what lessons we should be teaching them. Prooday believes children are emotionally dead and unresponsive to social cues. She claims that technology has completely destroyed us. I completely disagree. I believe that technology has offered us a path through which we can share our thoughts, build relationships, and spread news. Technology has made communication between families from faraway places much easier. However, I side with Prooday with the fact that parenting has become very obsolete. Parents no longer give their children much attention and ignore their thoughts. We have plenty to say and think a lot however many teachers, parents, and elders refuse to listen. Parents have forgotten what it means to be patient and have seemingly lost faith in their kids.

The article “Why are our children so bored at school, cannot wait, get easily frustrated and have no real friends”  is about parenting methods, to make parents aware on the effect of too much technology. Also more ways to help parents make their children more patient, and creative. Three points in the article that I agreed with is for parents to limit some of the use of technology, more social interaction with their children, and don’t be afraid to limit their children. This article applies to me and my interest, because sometimes before I go to bed, I check my phone and end up staying up later than expected.

This article written by Victoria Prooday, is an article regarding the changes of teenagers today in the modern world. She claims they are overrun by technology, have zero interest in school, and have emotional unavailable parents due to technology. I can say I completely disagree with this entire article. Prooday claims that parents have to do everything for their children, but I do most things on my own. I wake myself up, I make breakfast, dinner, I do my own homework, and I do not stay up all night. I am not obsessed with technology, in fact I spend most of my time outdoors with friends. I usually don’t get what I want immediately, but I never really asked for much. Her “kids rule the world” passage is something I disagree with too. If a student wants straight A’s, they obviously know they have to work hard considering they have been in school for years. Her “endless fun” passage is not endless fun. Maybe in kindergarten they let it slide if the kids disagree with a spelling assignment, but in high school if they don’t want to do it, then they get a zero, and thats it. I agree with how kids don’t want to work these days, but its always been that way. Kids want to work only with what they want to succeed in in life. If they want to be a doctor, they will work for that, if they want to be an athlete, they have the minimum grade requirements to get into the best college they can for athletics. Kids do not want to do school NOT because they have phones, or distant parents, but because it wont help them in the long run. This article does not apply to me. In school, I do the necessary amount of work to get the grades I am happy with. Not sure what kids Miss Prooday interviewed for this, but I think that is completely false.

1. Overview
Victoria Prooday has some valid points

# data[].attributes.body
Victoria Prooday has made some very valid claims about the use of technology and patience. But not all she said was true. Technology has the ability to keep your children busy on a long car ride or at a table in a restaurant. Parents can be strict on what their kids watch and play. Educational videos and games are amazing learning tools for kids, while keeping them busy. I have two sisters under the age of 6 and believe me, educational videos are not the worst thing your kids can be doing.

(children are constantly on electronics)

(children always want something)

(children lack interest in education)

3.I disagree with her statement that technology is ruining kids social skills and that we need to limit their screen time.

1. Overview-
This article was made to attempt to answer the question, "Why are our children so bored at school, have no in real life friends, and get frustrated so easily?" Prooday attempts to state that technology takes away many aspects in real life interaction and completely consumes the minds of minors.

- Agree

1. i agree with her statement completely because i do see how children now a days lack interactive social skills.

# data[].attributes.body
In this article the author Victoria Prooday explains her reasoning behind why students are bored at school, gets frustrated easily, and have no real friends. Prooday backs up her opinion by stated the reason why children are not engaged in school. I personally see points that I agree and disagree with in the article. I believe that the points she made does not apply to a majority of students. Although I do understand where she is coming from. Things like technology can distract kids and close us from the real world. Although I think she is grouping all students together. I do not feel that this article applies to me because I show interest and stay focused at school

# data[].attributes.body
Victoria Prooday tries to explain to us how our generation and the generations to come won’t be as successful as they want. Her main point is that technology is distracting us and the fact that we have instant entertainment will be our downfall. In the past children would go outside and play, this would develop social skills. I agree with her points on the subject.

Kids now a day get everything they want when they want. The phones, computers and tablets limite the time our generation goes outside.

Every teenager is addicted to their devices and this causes us to become bored easier in school and have small attention spans.

by teaching kids to control the use of their electronics they will learn that they will achieve more in life.

# data[].attributes.body
In the article written by Victoria Prooday, she dives into the issues that plague the children of today and how it is affecting the. It says that technology, instant gratification, and never hearing no is making it so that they are conditioned to get what they ant when they want it. She then dives into ways that she believes that we can fix this issues we are facing.

Agree
1. I totally agree with Victoria when she say that kids need to learn the word no. When ever I go to a store I always see a kid throwing tantrum when they are told that they can not have something. I think that this is a bad behavior that should not be tolerated and that they need to learn that they can have everything that they want.

2. I also agree that kids don't need to have endless fun. Sometimes things will just be boring, and kids need to learn how to just sit there and just do nothing. Life ins't a party there will be boring moments.

Disagree
1. I don't think that technology is ruining our social skills. Technology is allowing us to communicate with people in ways we have never imaged. Through technology I have made friend around the world and I haven't meet most of them. This has helped me devolve my social skill and improve them.
2. I don't agree that setting limits on out kids time is very wrong. I believe that they should be able to decide when they go to bed as they will be the ones to suffer the consequences when they wake up with a lack of sleep. This will help to teach them that they need to manage there time wisely. I also think that kids should not be limited that much on technology time because it can help them learn about anything they want and show them the incurable things in our world.
3.  I also disagree that the endless fun effects us when it comes time to learn. I have played video games my entire life and I can realize that not everything will be fun and that school is a probably. I think that Victoria is under estimating the kids ability to detach from technology.

3. This doesn't really apply to me that much for school. Although I do get board at times and lose focus, I believe that everyone lose focus at some point and that it is due to the boring teaching style. The author said that all time is fun time, but I believe that if people made teaching fun and not a chore that kids would love to learn and learn more about the world around them. I Think that we should update the way we teach our children. The way we teach hasn't evolved that much since the 1920's and that is shown when we are told to obey every order that is given to us, when we are told what order we have to do things, and when we told what we have to do. This type of teaching was meant for making factory workers who would obey every order and do stuff a certain way. This should change for the new way that we work and how we work.

# data[].attributes.body
1. Victoria Prooday is writing about her opinion on why children today are mentally unprepared for education. She believes that the problem starts with how our parents taught us when we were young. She disagrees with the overuse of technology, giving your kids whatever they want, letting your kids overpower you, and limiting their social interactions.

2. Prooday says, parents have taught their child’s brain to get what it wants right away. I strongly agree with this statement, most children this day in age are never told no. Parents will give into the child’s wants so they do not have to listen to them whining anymore. Prooday also says, technology disconnects us emotionally from our children and our families. I concur with this statement as well, many children are obsessed with their phones. If you are with your family and you are on your phone, you are not actually there with them. I also agree with Prooday, on how children should be on taking part in more activities rather than on their phones. Prooday says, technology has replaced outdoor time. This statement is completely true, rather than playing outside, kids are playing video games. Prooday states that if a child wants to be an A student, they need to study hard. I disagree with this statement because every child is different. For some students it is easier to retain knowledge than others.

3. This article applies to me because i am as well a child who uses technology. Personally, i do not use my phone very often and i do study hard. I have a high interest in school, and i strive to succeed.

overview: This article is informing us about the problems of children is this 21st century. Children rely on materialist things more than fundamental things. Children are focusing their time more on getting what they want when they are bored then what they need. Victoria Prooday makes a fair article on this problem, why are our children so bored at school, cannot wait, get easily frustrated and have no real friends. this article makes fair arguments but at the same time i disagree with most

Agree:

I agree on who kids rule the world, Kids should not get want they want everytime they ask and should work to get toward it.

There is a difference in want and need for children and i agree we should work to fix children being “weaker”

Disagree:

I do not agree on how kids are falling apart and being ruined by technology and are making it increasingly challenging for us kids to listen and concentrate in school

# data[].attributes.body
This article by author and therapist Victoria Prooday gave a overview on the reason behind children's overall decline in school. Overall I agree with author Prooday’s points. One major point that I am in agreeance with is that technology overall is causing kids these days to become lazier, and loose connection with others. I also agree with the point that endless fun is more hurtful to kids than helpful, and that you can't achieve anything without working hard. The final point that I am in agreeance with is that these days children get what they want when they want, and no longer work hard.

1. Overview:

This article was created to try and answer the questions “Why are children so bored at school, cannot wait, get frustrated easily, and have no real friends?”. The article uses an Occupational Therapist, Victoria Prooday, to share her insight on these frequently asked questions. The five main reasons that back up her evidence has to do with technology, kids always getting what they want, lack of discipline, and because of limited social interaction. Prooday states that technology takes away from emotional interactions and completely consumes the minds of these children.

2. Agree:

One main thing in this article that caught my attention was that technology consumes the user. We have come so far with technology, but that is all anyone thinks about nowadays.

Since technology is used everywhere and all the time, kids don’t even go outside and interact with others anymore. They are so distracted by their screens that they don’t do anything else.

You can buy almost anything in the world through technology and this causes kids to be more greedy. It just takes a few clicks to buy anything and kids seem to be buying whatever they want, when they want.

3. How does this apply to me:

Although school isn’t the most enjoyable, I find that technology makes school and education much more interesting. You can search anything by using the internet and there are hundreds of games created for learning purposes, which makes learning a bit more interesting.

# data[].attributes.body
Prooday, who’s been an occupational therapist for children for 10 years, In this article she touches on what she has learned and seen over the years about how kids are raised. I agree with her 100% and I feel that each parent out there should at least look at what she has to say. She brings up the fact that the brain is malleable and we can either make it stronger or weaker, especially at childhood. She said that we are just trying to satisfy them no matter the situation, if you give your child anything and everything they will be hit with reality by the time they have to make their own decision or be on their own. She also brought up that we are always trying to entertain our children and whenever there’s a dull moment we are back on it trying to entertain them again. We must allow them to learn how to entertain themselves, outside playing making friends building there imagination. Another point she made I agreed with was that we are limiting a child’s social interaction, with technology and toys and things to keep them entertained alone. They need to be out there experiencing and talking to peers there age. This article applies to me since I have two nephews and I know their mothers and families well, so I see the process of children being raised.

1.  The article “why are our children so bored at school, cannot wait, get easily frustrated and have no real friends?” by victoria prooday. Taught me that children nowadays that kids aren't getting disciplined the way they should be. Yet you would think that it's the kids fault for being so disrespectful however, every kid represents their parents. The parents are the ones who need to know how to say no when they need to and to be their parent not their friend.

2. - i believe that it is emotionally healthy to say no to your kids like the article states

Kids often do get bored easily such as myself

Anf this article states that kids get what they want when they want that is the only point i d not agree with

3. This article represents me only on some aspects because yes my life depends on technology however i feel as if i am more mature and i do things around the house and basically have a full time job to obtain the things i want when i want them.

This article is by a woman named, Victoria Prooday, who explains to readers about children in today’s society and how they can enhance their life. Prooday gives us many examples and reasons how to make children today better in today’s world and society. With these reasons she gives us, children all around the world can become much better. I agree with Prooday’s beliefs when she talks about limiting technology and connecting with your kids emotionally. Kids in today’s world spend too much time with technology and they get glued to the television rather than spending glorious time with family. I also agree with Victoria when she says to not be afraid to set limits. Kids need to be more mentally strong for when the real world comes to their life. Limits teach children to be more educated and disciplined. I also agree very much with Prooday’s belief of teaching social skills. Being glued to the television and video games is not a way of building social skills. Children must communicate with other peers and their family to become more outgoing and social. These are very important traits to obtain at a young age growing older. This applies to me because I am still a child and I can enhance all these traits in my own life. By growing and applying these attributes will help me be more advanced in school.

1.This article is explaining us how kids usually always get away with things. Kids today now have technology that keeps them busy and entertained. These kids are bored at school because they are restricted from using there phones.  They have to sit there and listen to the boring teacher teaching them about math or science.
2.What I agree with from the article is that the kids should make a schedule on what time they do their home work or the time they eat, their sleeping time and of course, time for phones.  The second thing I agree with  is that kids today should not always get what they want.  They should deserve it by getting good grades in school  or helping their parents by doing chores for them.  The third thing I agree with is  that kids need to be more active.  Instead of them on their phone they hsould play outside with friends or play a sport.  They should socially interacting with other kids.
3.Everyone knows school isn't the place they want to be everyday, but technology is no being introduced to schools. This technology makes learning easier and faster. They make so many apps for us such learning apps and so much more.

# data[].attributes.body
1. The article goes to explain how children are not as disciplined as they were before, and how they are not as motivated because everything comes easy to them, and that since technology and our society is different, children have a different grasp of what life should be like and don’t have a realistic view of how they should go about their lives.

2. As Pooday stated, children get what they want and are in control of their parents, when it should be the other way around. Parents always want to make their children happy, but they don’t realize that it is actually hurting the child, when they think they are helping. She also states how children are now limited to how much they interact with other children, which affects their social skills, and could hurt them in the long run with their jobs and making friends. But I also disagree with technology making kids lose their social skills, because children are also able to make friends easier and find people easier who share the same interest of them.

3. This article affects my school life because when I was younger, I was not as focused in school due to technology and would always procrastinate my work. Now that I am using my phone less, I have very good grades and I am able to focus on thing that highly impact my life and me as a person.

# data[].attributes.body
The article “Why are our children so bored at school, cannot wait, get easily frustrated and have no real friends?” is about how technology is taking over children’s lives. They are becoming more lazy, and less social due to the fact at how easily they get things these days. There is no work ethic and therefore lose interest in the things they do not want to do. I agree with the fact that kids are used to instant gratification and get what they want when they want it. This establishes an unrealistic example of how the real world works. With all the free time that kids have these days, they choose to spend it all on technology rather than spending time actually talking to people or playing outside. Kids do in fact need limits in order for them to respect the freedoms they are given in life. This article applies to me because I do in fact lose interest in school at times.This is in fact due to the distraction of a variety of buzzes coming from my phone, and other social interactions I have with fellow classmates.

This article is an informative article that brings up a concern about Today's education system and the well-being of  Today's children. This article talks about how children are becoming lazier and less productive. It also explains how social media is affecting kids social skills. It goes on to give reasons and evidence for all the points made. Overall this article brings up a very good point and is very well written.

My personal Agreements with this article
1.) I totally agree with everything this article says about technology. Technology can be very useful and can positively influence productivity but sometimes it can also  also lessen productivity and pamper ones performance. Technology can have a very negative effect, especially in children and when overused.
2.) I agree with what the author says about children being socially limited by technology. Today's generation of children are spending all their time on phones and computers playing video games instead of going outdoors and exploring their social skills.
3.) I also agree with the authors advice on how to change society for the better. I believe that if parents and teachers listened to these points and tried putting them into action it would positively affect children's ability to communicate and be a productive member ofsociety.

1. Overview- To me this article is trying to explain how kids get bored. The article talks about how when kids want something, they usually get it right away because they are rarely told no. Whenever they are told no, they sometimes throw fits. One of the problems with society for kids is the use of technology. When kids are obsessed with their tablet, phones, or gaming system. So when it’s time to interact with someone they are no used to it and they end up getting bored.

1. Terms that I agree with

Parents let their kids control how they act and what they do.

When kids get bored they go to games to fix the problem.

Since you can order almost anything through the internet, people get more greedy.

3. How does this apply to me- This article applies to me by having people at school using technology to do their work throughout the day. When people get bored in class they go straight to their computer to play games.

# data[].attributes.body
1.) This article is mainly explaining each key reason why kids get bored at school. It summarizes how kids get what they want and that is why kids never do what they don't want. Technology including cell phones and video games are blamed for keeping kids too busy to interact and make other technology at school boring.
2.) Terms I agree with
- Kids are too busy on their phones
- Technology at school is boring.
- parents let their kids control them
Terms I disagree with
- kids always get what they want.
- not all kids have digital gadgets to use.
3.) This article written bye Victoria Prooday relates to kids at my school because I feel at my school kids get what they want. Because of this they often get lazy or don't try when it comes to something that they don't want to do.

# data[].attributes.body
1. Overview- I think this article is pretty spot-on in what she say. I saw this happening with my cousin in P.R. he is more focus on his games and computer.
2. Agree-  You can see kids not talking in the table and on their phones in the restaurants. My cousin only eats snacks and doesn’t finish his food and goes back into his room to play Xbox.
3. How does this apply to me
This apply to me cause i don't go to sleep early in the weekends.

# data[].attributes.body
This article primarily discusses some of the effects that today's technology and parents mental unavailability has on the children. It discusses that many kids find more “fun” in playing with their gadgets than going outside and running or drawing and interacting with other children. It states that many parents prefer to take the easy way out of parenting and provide their children with whatever they want at the time, no matter if it only gives them happiness temporarily. However, occupational therapist Victoria Pooray  argues that children are becomes less and less prepared to deal with even the smallest of disruption or stress. The fact I agree with the most is how children are becoming very reliant on their gadgets that are being handed to them with little or no restrictions. The internet is a really dangerous accessible place that technology provides us with. This generation is more tech savvy than some of their parents or even older siblings. I also agree with the fact that many parents do chose to take the easy way out of parenting just by providing their kids with anything that will solve the situation at hand.  How can anyone be prepared to deal with stress or real life problems if they’ve never even got a glimpse of what the word “no” really is and no understanding of the world outside of their gadgets. The fact that “kids rule the world” cannot be any truer because many parents chose to do whatever their child is telling them to know but clearly dont have the mental capacity or understanding to know right from wrong. So if parents can’t even follow their instinct and continue to give things what they want instead of what they need, the message for kids is very negative.
