I also think that technology is a detriment to childhood. How can you create fun memories by doing that?

Fun is subjective. My childhood friends were likeminded and we shared plenty of good times from this interest. I even felt others were missing out.

1...Wear makeup?
2... Own a technological device?
3... Get their ears pierced?

1) If they really want to I'll teach them before I let them wear it out bc I ain't walkin round with a kid that be lookin like the mad hatter :colonhash:

2) Like year 10,

Spoiler

3) Whenever - I got mine pierced when I was a baby. I'd say 17 for things like belly button piercings, nose rings, tattoos etc. because if they get those young and they're still growing it would **** up right? or maybe im wrong. Either way I feel like a 15 y/o is too young to decide what body mods they wanna get and keep for life lol.

I was playing age of empires in year 2.

I don't see the harm in letting them play video games as soon as they are able. Denying them that is no different to denying them toys :-/

1. whenever they feel ready. Will make them take good skincare every night tho.
2. Limited during childhood tbh. Would want them to experience the real world first and take them travelling around instead of being glued to a phone.
3. A piercing on each ear when they're around 2, and then will let them make their own decisions about it when they become an adolescent.
