Ladies of Hive Community Contest #273 - Coping up with new age
@LadiesofHive Community Contest #273 questions for the week are:
1️⃣ What advice would you share explaining how you equip yourself with knowledge and coping skills in an ever changing world. Include the elderly or young who share your daily journey through constant state of transition.
~ 𝐀𝐍𝐃 / 𝐎𝐑 ~
2️⃣ With technology ever creeping into daily life, how do you plan an optimal home environment, where family are safe within well-organized conditions, spaces where children can play, explore, and discover without your ever watchful eye? Describe opportunities you seek out when presenting that you feel are important to the household.
Advancement in technology is galloping in our times and what I have observed is, that it is not difficult for the younger generation to keep up with the pace. These days even children of 5 and 6 years understands how to use it very quickly. The challenge is with the older generation to keep up with the pace.
Sometimes my son tells me how he uses all different types of Apps to optimize his work, and it all goes above my head. He is so fast that even before I can grasp one part of it he is on to the next. Some times I interrupt and sometimes I let it pass if I do not find it of any use to me. I do put in time to learn what is relevant for me. There is so much and I do not need all of it, so there is no point for me to break my head and spend my time on something which does not matter to me. Also I am an old school and some of my things I like to do it the old way only even though the technology has advanced. Like I still prefer reading hard cover books then getting a kindle. I barely use 25% of my phone features.
I feel that these things are constantly going to expand and how much ever you put to use you will always find something more, so my logic is simple, get into what is needed for you. Not everything is meant for you. Whatever is useful for me I take tutorials on it from Youtube which is readily available or from someone I know has the knowledge of it. I do keep myself updated on the latest developments happening around the world through e-newspaper. It is the world of AI and this technology is easy and complicated at the same time. I use the simple Meta AI feature which is available on my Whatsapp, and this solves my purpose. There are many AI apps but then I do not need it so I do not even want to understand them. If some day I need I will put my head to it, but till then it's peace.
In my home use of Technology is very less, we do not have many gadgets. We have some kitchen gadgets and a television. Yes the wifi router is there for the Internet. There is no Alexa or anything that is operated by remote control. Everything is manual. I can say that as such my home environment is very safe. I have Air purifier and monitor in my home and we have many plants. There is a play ground in our society where the children play in the evening time. There is no small child in my home now. As such my home environment is safe and clean for any age group.

I've also gradually move towards seeking out the relevant information needed at the relevant time with tech as opposed to trying to keep pace with whatever is happening to stay informed. Not all of it is interesting to me or I find useful in the moment.
Totally agree with only learn what you really need to have knowledge in, no use overloading your mind with it all which will lead to not knowing any.
Having a park or portion of a garden where younger children can play making new friends, teenagers to can meet to chat outdoors a massive bonus.

Given the constant change and advancement of the digital age, I agree with you that we need to delve deeper into what we truly need, as well as stay up-to-date with digital newspapers. The important thing, as you say, is to maintain peace, like the kind reflected in your home. Have a lovely afternoon, my friend

Today's children as told are fast in grasping things, an area where I lag, may be for my Age or less patience. Having less gadget use is a blessing my friend. Even here its the same. Its nice to hear the children are making use of the playground.
