Computers are the effect, not the cause. Kids resort to computers because
just about anything with the slightest element of risk is now forbidden to
them. Everything that requires movement or strenuous exercise or being
away
from constant supervision for more than a few minutes or involves any type
of
insurance or liability (which covers practically everything) is no longer
an
option. They live with their parents in a state of fear of everything,
and
about the only thing that carries very little risk is playing with a
computer.



Oh yeah, roller skates, bicycles, pogo sticks, 4 wheelers, skate boards, BB
guns, fireworks, baseball, football, RC airplanes, swimming pools, lawn
mowers, sling shots, go-carts, coaster cars, mini bikes, unicycles, play
grounds, tree swings, pocket knives, pet rodents, water skiing, horse back
riding, calf roping, and many others - have been outlawed for participants
less than 21 years old in the United States now for gosh, how many years MX,
I don't even recall.

Actually children that lock themselves in a room with a computer, and use it
for nothing more constructive than running flight simulator, and pretending
to be something their not on the Usenet, are actually few and far between.
