Agree with the statement. The example demonstrates an offline situation where you see (feel, hear, smell) what happens physically, which is infinitely richer than watching a video. Next, the youngster participates in physical labor, which is very engaging. You feel it. You contributed something meaningful and this is immediately validated by real people. Senior people that you look up to. Body and mind feel accomplished. The video alternative is fully passive. You didn't do anything or interact with anybody. Simply put, you didn't experience anything. In general you could say we've become incredibly good in servicing our wants, whilst completely ignoring our basic needs. And frankly, most of the wants are made-up, a result of marketing and peer pressure. With human needs in this context I mean your body needing to be physically active outdoors. We're not designed to sit in a cave in artificial light in poor quality air. We're not even designed to sit at all. And, we need to spend a LOT of time with physical people, not digital ones. We are a physical social species. All of that has become optional. You can live, work, connect, entertain yourself and have anything shipped to you, nothing requires you to leave your house, get physical or talk to real people. That's wonderful, because with all this time saved...one can spend even more time in the house, sitting. It's a hard pattern to break because it requires willingly becoming inefficient. As dinner time approaches, I can open an app and tap on whatever comes to mind. Or, I could cycle to the store, hand-select ingredients, might meet/talk to somebody, cycle back, prepare dinner, eat, clean dishes. Quite a lot more steps, but you'll definitely feel more accomplished. You moved, got out into the world, saw/met real people, produced something of your own.
