Yesterday I paid £25 for my loon to go to a bushcraft activity,

 

3 hours away into a near by woods, for him to make hutties, traps, weapons, camp fire, cook food on the fire and so on,

 

 

Of course he thoroughly enjoyed himself, but what happened to the generation of young kids doing this as norm, and time to come hame when they were hungry, tired or wet.

 

Ipads and Xboxs has numbed and dumbed the new generation.

 

Taking him tubing this afternoon, canna wait :)

If the power went out tomorrow you can bet 99% of Westerners would starve to death within a couple of months, kids and adults alike. It's good to see some folks still try to teach their kids self-sufficiency.

 

The basics, learning to fight, and teaching them to be proactive, independent thinkers are just as important as teaching them how to build a fire or skin an animal.

 

Without technology and pre-packaged foods most of us in the First World are useless eaters Who can't even grow a tomato plant.

My uncle gave me a pen knife when I was 8, I could not imagine my 9 years old being given such a gift without moral outrage.

 

While modern technology is great, they will remember the day they went down the burny and made a hutty, used a rope swing across the burn the first time, rather than what they did on Minecraft.

 

The last day of the Easter holidays the morn, and the morn we will be going to his Grandma's, where he will learn to rummle the spooty. Much to piss my dad off.

That's good because you can be safe in the knowledge that he will not have to rely on Gazza to help him out with Chicken nuggets, a fishing rod & lagers.
