The Forest Is The Game

submitted by RFlagg

9 years 5 months ago

From YT: A group of 8-9-year-olds test out "the most realistic video game in development"-- only to discover that nature itself was the game.

Most Americans live within 100 miles of a natural forest or grassland but believe that nature is inaccessible and are increasingly less likely to engage in the great outdoors. Discover the Forest, a campaign on behalf of the US Forest Service and Ad Council, partnered with The Barbarian Group for this new video.

Not exactly sure what they are trying to say here ,but if it's something about, all you have to do is take your video game/television/electronics dependent children in to the forest (expose them to nature) I say bullocks! All that is imo is a lazy parents fantasy.

Ive seen the parents that have allowed their children to be raised on video games, etc, And ive seen the children extremely limited to this exposure by parents who take the time to take their children outside (sports, nature,etc.) No golden bullets here. It's all about how you parent. Has little to do with your children IMO.

I have no kids, but from families i am closely tied to i've seen the difference. It has zero to do with the kids and everything to do with how they were raised. Just my opinion from my observations.

Yeah, am tempted to down vote this purely on the awful "uplifting" music.

They better hurry up and build a shelter! The cannibals will discover their location soon!

Moving this video to RFlagg's personal queue. It failed to receive enough votes to get sifted up to the front page within 2 days.
