Social networks and teenagers (Družbena omrežja in najstniki)

Nowadays, more and more people are under the influence of social networks and the ideas they convey. In the future, I want people to return to a time when not everything around phones, games, computers and social networks has yet to survive. Of course, to some extent, the use of these alone is beneficial and not only negative impacts, but in the vast majority it works negatively on teenagers. Instead of playing outdoors with friends, many prefer “scrolling” in Tiktok, Instagram etc. Social networks should be less accessible to young people in the future or later. This would bring many positive changes, above all, in the healthier, development of these children. It would also improve their mental health, self-esteem, etc. Given that social networks also have an increasing impact on our attention, as teenagers increasingly find it difficult to keep their attention and turbulent attention is increasingly peculiar to primary school pupils, this would also have a positive impact on this.

the future is grandchildren
in 2040 I will be 72 and my children 32 and 31 - I hope I have grandchildren and that they live near. I hope my kids are settled workign and have decent places to live. air and watr are clean. i hope that the weather has settled and the enviroment stabalised - but I doudt it and I think my children will be facing more extreme weather. AI will impact their jobs but not to the extent the pessimists worry. I will be retired - but only just as I enjoy work, i will have a rich cultureal and social life and wont be worrying about caring for othes (those years are behind me). I might need to help my kids finaically just as my parents helped me - but they do ok.

Se på mig
When you sit in a café in the sun, people talk. The cell phones are gone. You look into each other's eyes and take an interest in each other. Respects differences, sexuality, skin tones and attitudes. They no longer judge each other. There is peace and quiet in the world. No one feels superior to anyone else. The focus is on the contact, interaction and respect between people. There is peace and no stress.

Ma maison du futur
Always very connected. A detached house that is enough for itself. Photovoltaic panel, water recycling. Have warm in winter and cool in summer. Naturally I have a greenhouse that allows me to eat fruits and vegetables that I produce myself. There will also be cameras for my safety. I would very much like to see other propulsion modes for my vehicle develop, with solar panels to charge my car.
