Are my future kids going to have the same childhood as me?

I remember playing out in my back yard till dawn, waking up an hour early before tv cartoon programmes started because it always took me an hour to get up xD sabrina the teenage witch, saved by the bell, ed edd and eddy, two of a kind, arthur I remember when these programmes had adverts for NEW series and now they just show re-runs, I remember the rare times I went to the huge shopping centres and how I had my birthday parties in the back garden with balloons and cakes, alot of the 80's music was still around, y favourite song then was 'don't your forget about me' by simple minds: P I also remember when vogue was really famous for years xD
I just wanted to know whether my future children were going to have the same childhood, because mine was awesome and… Technology-free. I dislike the young kids of this generation who, already at 9, have expensive iphones and everything, are they gonna have an awesome childhood as mine or has technology changed the world and there's no hope?

You won't be able to control what goes on in the outside world, but you CAN control the amount of TV they watch, you can control when they get a cellphone and how they use it (hint: make them pay for All the usage), you can control what they eat and wear and how they spend a large part of their free time.
If you can use all that time while they're still young, to train them in the knowledge that you don't NEED technology to be happy, that you should use it when it's helpful but not be obsessed by it, then they have a good chance of growing up as balanced adults.

Probably not. The government is going to be "big brother", watching our every move with sophisticated electronics, and tell us how to act and think (for our own good). And with global warming and pollution, blue sky's and green grass may become extinct. But, at least everybody will have a cell phone that can pick up 5000 TV shows and movies.
