Dear Techie -
I have a geek, and have been darn well having a dickens of a time getting him to go outside. He sees that big yellow ball heating up the Earth and races back inside before his pale skin crisps up. Night time isn't much better. He insists on wearing his night-vision goggles, and ends up tripping over things right in front of his feet. Next thing I know, he's back in the basement playing with his joystick.
What's a mother to do!?
Regards,
Mothergeek -
Thanks for the question. The shift these days seems to be on teaching geeks that things normally found safely indoors in climate-controlled, and population-controlled, spaces can actually also happen out in the world, amongst random organic elements like plants, wind, and even other people!
An example of an event based on this thinking is OutdoorTrek.
