I guess it's not surprising given the example the authorities set. Last year the Postal Service announced it was scrapping a line of stamps depicting children in various forms of play such as skipping rope, walking and jogging, dribbling a basketball, etc. The reason? It received “concerns” from the President’s Council on Fitness, Sports & Nutrition over apparently “unsafe” acts shown on three of the stamps: a cannonball dive into a pool, skateboarding without kneepads, and a headstand without a helmet .
So if we end up with a generation of soft, obese kids who only want to live in the cozy world of social media, we have ourselves to blame as we slowly eliminate any examples of life ever having been different.
On the other hand kids probably don't even know what a physical letter is anymore, not to mention a stamp.
