Grandmother: I slept, sewed, talked to the neighbors. As we lived far from the city, we didn't have many distractions.

Question: Do you think that how children live today is very different from how you lived?
Grandmother: Ah, it is very different. Today children do not have to work, they study, they know how to read. Today is much better than before. In the past I had to work to help at home and there was no time to study or work. Today is better.
Mother: Yes, it is very different, children today are very intelligent, in the past children were dumb (laughs).
Father: The lives of children today are similar to my childhood, but today children have more technology and modern toys. Today it has also become more dangerous and children can no longer play on the street. I could.
