did you know not a fair question due to the fact that we have different cultures and times even back in "little house on the prarie" days 14- 16yr olds were considered to be fully grown capable men and women. Our great proud country hones irresponsible children. look at our digression now whereas back then work and responsibility grew them up faster and now tv and video games grow them up slower even though they look grown at 8 with fully developed bodies (thanks to certain scientists that like to tamper with public school foods) but they are not. A sixteen year old boy back then probably had what would be the equivelant of a high degree of landscaping, carpentry and perhaps even architecture just by working with his dad out in the field now our kids are experts at world of war craft dungeons and dragons internet surfing hacking and stealing and halo 3 whoa! really responsible even with the argument that they learn technical skill how often is it really that kids go into this field if life is a gift who gave the gift? you are free from religion by choice and also depriving yourself of a relationship with the most high God Jesus Chist. although i am VERY greatful for all the thing God has blessed me with my eyes are not closed to the pitfalls of society. God wants us to be sober and watch the times.technology is nice but most of it is designed to make us lazy I am apart of this time too dont forget that and I know GOD birthed me in this time and not those times for a reason but we can not escape the fact that technology is a bit much aside from "some" medical uses. Yup I am laing across my bed listening to my bible study when I saw a question that moved me enough to answer lets continue in truth God uses even things that are menat to do bad for His use and He is Worthy to be praised!!!!
