What an electronic gadget does when you turn it on? Entertain you? Haha. You can entertain yourself by doing sumtin you enjoy to do. Like woodworking, gardening, knitting, playing with your own kids, teach them sumtin useful. Help you? Hell no. Yeah, you can tell me Google helps you when you searching for some answers in a subject. Ok, monitor yourself next time when you search online for sumtin. How many useless sites you just clicked on? How many useless information you just absorbed? How many hours you were sitting there for a two minutes search? How much more tasks you solved or done by them? To be honest, you are more counterproductive while these gadgets are on around you, because they always get you out of the track. Especially on the long run. How many times you got home and instead fixing sumtin you being a coach potato, watching telly, surfing the internet, checking out useless bullshit on FB? Electronic gadgets help you to keep your children occupied? Yes, it certainly does. But, how many precious hours you lost by they got 14 and finish elementary school? How many days you didn't spend together? They have no positively charged memories about you or with you. Therefore they have no strong emotional string attached to you. How fucked up they are socially, because they don't learn the excepted behaviors? The only thing they do or are is aggressive, because that's what they learn from those video games. The other usually performed behavior is selfishness and combined this with aggression the conclusion is always tantrum. Look at the other group of electronic gadgets: tools. Electronic tools have the purpose to make your job easier. Yes, they do this on a certain level. But, on the other hand they ruin your craftsman's skills. How? When you use hand tools you have to have a very precise eye-hand coordination. You have to be good in controlling the tool. And of course you need to know the old traditional methods and tricks to do a particular task. With the modern, laser guided, tools you lose all of these invaluable knowledge and skills. But, back to the new age electronic devices. Actually they don't have such a purpose like your electronic tools. You can live your life without them. So, the only thing they do is they are occupying your mind 24/7. And till your mind does not have a purpose and working towards it, your life is a piece of shit. You are not efficient, you are not productive, you are socially retarded, your kids also and you let them to be, you are not controlling your mind and your life, you become more and more indolent, sluggish and lazy. Thus become less and less self-disciplined. And when you don't have self-discipline your life will getting fall apart and slip into misery. By this time you develop self-pity and you have answer for every situation in your past what went wrong. There is another benefit of electronic gadget. This is not for you, but for businessmen, governments and groups above governments. Whilst your brain is occupied you less likely thinking about them and their manipulations and how to cut their strings off. So, they have a better control over you. When was the last time when you got out into the woods with your family, hit the trail and left all the gadgets behind???
