After dinner, my son, who is in junior high school, asked me, "What is the use of your mobile phone?" Can it be eaten as a meal or drunk as water? ”
I naturally understood what he meant, he was asking me why I played with my mobile phone, obviously because I used to play with his mobile phone, and now that he has grown up, he has learned to use what I said to ask me. I replied, "Dad is tired after a long day of work, so it's okay to take some time to rest and have fun after eating and washing the dishes." ”
I reflected on myself, and I had asked him that before. In fact, in life, elders or parents often ask their children: "What is the use of your mobile phone (computer)?" Eat or drink? "I thought about it, and it didn't come out of nowhere, or something we coined, but something like that existed a long time ago.
In the past, life was relatively difficult and material scarce, and people's primary concern was survival and food and clothing, and they did not have the energy and heart to leisure and entertainment. In other words, the living conditions at that time determined people's living habits and ways of thinking, and they would put doing "the right thing" in the first place.
Today's young people are not the same as they used to be, and the material living conditions are much better today than in the past, and people crave more rest and entertainment after work. Today, mobile phones, computers, short phones, etc. have been widely used in people's lives and have had a huge impact. Today's young people no longer regard survival as important, because the problem of food and clothing has been solved, so they pay more attention to personal rest and entertainment.
Whether it's elders, parents, or young people nowadays, it's understandable that everyone's living conditions determine their attitudes and habits towards life. If you don't adjust your mentality in time, conflicts between young people and elders will inevitably arise. If the elders can't adjust their mentality, it will not be pleasing to the eyes of young people, and it will not be pleasing to the eye, which will lead to increased psychological pressure and increased blood pressure.
Going back to the previous question, what is the use of playing with a mobile phone? Can you eat or drink? I think there is no use in what you do, there is a use in eating, there is a use in learning, there is a use in what you do, and playing with your mobile phone as a form of entertainment is also reasonable.
As long as we control our time, work and leisure, we can have as much entertainment as we want. It's nothing to play with a mobile phone, let's keep pace with the times!
