Have we moved on?

So children are able to use the latest ipad

Choosing their apps paid for by mum or dad

They click the screen and it all appears

How technology has moved throughout the years

 

But the question is, are children really that clever?

A previous generation unable to do it but will endeavour

More children starting school from behind expectation

Blaming teachers again is a tired accusation

 

Generations before their minds would do the thinking

Now the computers do it all and their minds are sinking

A Pen, some paper and your brain is all you really need

I can’t to it, pass me my phone the children simply plead

 

We’ve created a generation of accepting a lazy mind

When, as a generation, we are falling behind

Now in schools we have the latest gadget toy

Is this the governments and manufactures ploy?

 

I think it’s time to save our poor little nation

And throw away the gadgets without hesitation

Of course they have a place in our modern society

We should embrace technology and its variety

 

I’m not being negative about the next generation

But I fear their minds will soon be in extinction

They rely too much on a technological device

And will not listen to this simple advice

 

Expand your minds with learning how to write

Get a lamp next to your bed to read a book at night

Visit new places and explore their culture with care

Put down your ipads go on I dare!
