(4)Sounds extreme,but we've all witnessed the evidence:The person at a restaurant who talks on the phone through an entire meal,ignoring his kids around the table;the woman who talks on the phone in the car,ignoring her husband;the teen who texts messages all the way home from school,avoiding contact with kids all around him.

(5)Jim Williams,an industrial sociologist based in Massachusetts,notes that cell-phone addiction is part of a set of symptoms in a widening g111f of personal separation.He points to a study by Duke University researchers that found one-quarter of Americans say they have no one to discuss their most important personal business with.Despite the growing use of phones,e-mail and instant messaging,in other words,Williams says studies show that we don’t have as many friends as our parents.”Just as more information has led to less wisdom,more acquaintances via the Internet and cell phones have produced fewer friends”he says.

The early 1900s were very different from today, when toys were still the delight of children everywhere.

Theodore Roosevelt's Presidency marks the beginning of the “Teddy Bear”. In the year 1902,toy bears were named “Teddy” after the president's nickname. The Teddy Bear became known worldwide and it was only a few years later that the Teddy Bears were mass produced.

In 1913,an item called the Erector Set was invented. It was a steel,motorized toy that children could use to build models of anything. Its creator was A.C.Gilbert,a medical doctor.

Charles Pajeau created a similar wooden set called Tinker Toys in the year 1914.Tinker Toys were made for younger children.

Raggedy Ann dolls first came on the scene after newspaper cartoonist Johnny Gruelle reproduced the doll he made for his daughter. That was in 1915.

The following year,an architect's son named John Lloyd Wright,invented Lincoln Logs,which were interlocked to make structures.

Two years after Mickey Mouse was created,stuffed(填塞)Mickey Mouse dolls were made by Charlotte Clark. This was the start of Disney merchandise.

The yo­yo became popular in the United States after Donald Duncan bought a yo­yo company in 1929.

The View­Master,a three dimensional viewer,was developed by a camera enthusiast named William Gruber. The toy became popular when Gruber licensed Disney characters to make still, 3­D images from Disney movies and television programs.

Finally,in 1940,model airplanes were mass produced. They started out as a way for manufacturers to sell planes to the military,but later caught on as a toy.

     Every kid more or less complains about school. But five to ten percent of kids dislike it so much that
they don't want to attend. lf a child seems upset or anxious about school, pretends to be sick to stay
home, repeatedly winds up in the nurse's or principal's office, or refuses to talk about the school day,
you should be concerned.
     One fear that keeps children from enjoying school is separation anxiety. It most frequently occurs
during times of family problems or when a child is about to enter a new school. With younger kids, watch
how you say good-bye those first few days of school. A firm "Have a great day, and I'll pick you up at
2: 30!" is more confidence-inspiring than" Don't worry. I can be there in ten minutes if you need me. "
     You can help your child handle fearful situations-from speaking up in class to taking tests-by
rehearsing at home. Help make large projects less discouraging by breaking them into manageable
pieces. Teach your child to replace thoughts such as "I'm going  to  fail" with" I can  handle this".
     Some kids dislike school because they have no friends. This may be the case if your child is always
alone, fakes illness to avoid class outings or gives away treasured possessions in an attempt to be liked.
Often loneliness problems can be solved by improving social skills. A child may need to learn how yo
look others in the eye when he speaks, or how to talk above a whisper -or below a yell. You might
teach a young child a few "friendship openers", such as "Myname's Tom. What's yours? Do you want to
play games?"
