I'm 34 now. When I was a kid, I'd spend hours daily on a Windows 3.1 computer at home and an Atari with those old 5 1/4-inch floppy game disks at my grandpa's place.

Then the internet and cable TV came to our house, and I was glued to that for most of my time. Faster internet followed, giving us access to all sorts of unfiltered online content (sites like Ogrish were the norm with my friend group). Smartphones and apps hit the scene not long after.

Nowadays, I have a 7-year-old son who's constantly on his tablet, playing Roblox or Minecraft on my computer, or watching YouTube videos about trains and tornado sirens on the TV (yep, he's autistic). He's been seeing me do similar stuff since he was born. No surprise he started mimicking that behavior. It doesn't really bother me, though.
