I someone who graduated HS in 1979
Furthered my education
As I would long ago
Would have seen the world
As I studied to be a flight attendant
My life changed when I had married and had my babies
With the simplicity of a electric typewriter
Home row still based on the typewriter
Yet now the things I thought of when I was a little girl
Are now in our life everyday
We can see each other when we talk on the phone
I am frozen in time technology wise
I am limited
And I perfer it that way
So impersonal when used on a different level

My experience with four of my children the first three born in the early eighties
First one in 1981
From her to my youngest
Multifactoral reasons
And have expressed having watched very closely to all ingredients and in today's phone usages and no interest in anything life has to offer
Having had many to help

Meaning the professionals
It has become like a drug
Obsession phone usage
I am just a parent who watched her child have a difficult time at the same age starting high school
Not knowing anybody
Trying to define herself with the choices she had made and continues to make
I am saddened to watch it
This generation is like no other
A open mother I am
Help me understand
But I know addiction when I see it
It too goes hand in hand with other very important matters she does not want to get help for
Not things to be taken lightly
Won't mention them as I want to stay on point
No self esteem plus bullying the feel of no where to turn to
I have seen what social media has done to my children and I can say wholeheartedly I speak of my personal experience
And she is stuck
And she has to take charge and do something with her life
And to seek the help she needs
I kills to watch it happen
The world hears so much hate
I believe in Jesus Christ
Something my family knows and hears me speak to him throughout their life
Now it is being taken out of the things I sang in class as a little girl
Such as "God bless America
Land that I love
Stand beside her
and guide her
through the night
with the light
from above"
I do not shove any religion down anybodies belief
My children are in flux with where their heart and faith if any. Ones from
This j see in my family
And only speak of our experience
Hope I have been able to get out as a mommy
