Kids dont go out alot today to play with other kids. But with the introduction of VR will this decrease even more?

Plus isnt bad for your eyes too

Children play out all the time here, as I speak there are three out on their bikes in front of our house, my grandson is regularly at the nearby park, or playing football, or out on walks in the countryside, so I don’t agree with that point.
VR for the home is very expensive still and as with all tech, it depends on parents controlling the time in use.
Telephones and TV’s were ‘the work of the devil’ at their inception.

Virtual reality, I'm guessing? And I can only speak for my grandson, but he is never happier than when he is outside. He goes for long walks with my OH and our dog and also with his own parents and their two dogs. He loves to be outside in all weathers.
