INSERT *RANT* HERE! YOU MIGHT NOT LIKE THIS…
I don’t know, maybe it’s because the Leafs lost last night but I needed to blow off some steam. Check out my rant here!
This post began as a raw rant I wrote back in May 2013 — when my kids were still young, smartphones were just entering every household, and the digital world was starting to creep into childhood in ways that made me uncomfortable.
Now, standing at the start of 2026, it’s unsettling to see how much I got right… and how much worse the situation has become.
Where Will the Lives of Our Children Be Three Generations From Now?
Way back when children used to be married off as soon as they “came of age.” As soon as girls menstruated, they were considered old enough to take on the day-to-day duties of women — cleaning, keeping a home, caring for a husband.

Best wishes. There is always next year.
Indeed we will be back. I’m in mourning this morning though… *sniff*

Perfect. Thank you. Awesome.
judge bangs the gavel and rules in your favor!
Excellent topic and execution. I loved it and agree
Could not agree with you more – kids are becoming adults from a young age and the whole system of age restrictions has gone down the train. I recently went to a rave where there was a 7 year old, holding a glow stick enjoying the rave while his mother was busy getting drunk on the side – shock of my life. What have we come to!? And where are we going!??
