I saw an interview recently where the interviewee -- who is about my age or maybe a little older -- was talking about how #socialmedia has changed things.
He said that before social media kids were either outside playing with their friends, or inside in their rooms *drawing, or playing with a keyboard, or whatever*.
If he had just added reading and programming 8-bit machines, that would actually be my childhood.

KTLA Los Angeles: Hundreds of teens run amok at Southern California mall; dozens detained

Instead of paying for hobbies and activities for summer, parents leave the adult supervision to minimum wage workers and tax payers at the mall.
They are your kids and your responsibility now! Sometimes parents need the house to themselves while the kids are doing all the shopping.

Date night with my wife. Very excited to get out of the house for a bit and just spend time alone together. Love this woman! #Date #DateNight #AloneTime #Love #TimeTogether
Lezend in “De wijsheid van de heks” van Susan Smit kom ik het woord solitude tegen. Google vertaalt het als eenzaamheid, maar dat is het eigenlijk niet. Als ik denk aan eenzaamheid dan denk ik aan je heel alleen voelen, hier wellicht verdrietig over zijn. Maar wanneer ik denk aan solitude dan maakt mijn hart een sprongetje, want ik hou van solitude. Solitude zou ik vertalen als "alleenheid" en er is niks met een portie alleenheid, zo nu en dan!

A couple, a cat, and camper van
Set off on a life on the land
But a little too much
Can make for a crutch
So they always make alone time a plan

Well I've had the house to myself today so it's been quite therapeutic. I am somebody who is very content with their own company (OK I annoy myself but there's really not a lot of self these days). #life #cathartic #AloneTime
Found a great spot to sit and relax for a while. #alonetime #TheShining #LonelyHallway #PeaceAndQuiet
