The point of this post isn't that TV is bad and books are good, the kid is watching 1 guy 1 jar on the TV.

What if books were invented after video games?

These new 'libraries' that have arisen in recent years to facilitate reading activities are a frightening sight: dozens of young children, normally so vivacious and socially interactive, sitting alone in cubicles, reading silently, oblivious to their peers.

But perhaps the most dangerous property of these books is the fact that they follow a fixed linear path. You can't control their narratives in any fashion - you simply sit back and have the story dictated to you. Why would anyone want to embark on an adventure utterly choreographed by another person? But today's generation embarks on such adventures millions of times a day.

This risks instilling a general passivity in our children, making them feel as though they're powerless to change their circumstances. The book readers of the younger generation are learning to 'follow the plot' instead of learning to lead.

We’ve moved on to the “don’t play that” era

Be happy that this is what you're getting from the picture.

The olds do it too and it's so much worse for them.
