If our generation are so different to our parent's, then what will our kids be like? What I mean is, will kids of the future rebel against us and do their homework and get decent jobs and not play viedogames? Will they start dressing like Cockney urchins and go up the chimneys of the future? Do you see what I mean, because I don't think I explained it very well. Look at this timeline:

(1800's to 1900's) - Victorian England:
People were either Urchins or posh, according to Dickens.

(1900's to 1960's) - Our parents years:
They were cool then, but not now. We laugh at their fashion and what they did for fun.

(1960's to present) - Videogames and us:
Most of us were born in this time period and videogames were invented. Videogames are fun. We have fun. We look nerdy.

(2040 to the future) - Future Children:
Mutant half mobile phone/half child see what their parent's did as 'uncool' and shun videogames. Result - They work harder at school, get better jobs and are generally are cleverer than their parents. Maybe it's because they've now got three eyes?

Do you see what I mean now? I think I've confused myself into a cross-eyed state now.

One thing's for sure, they'll be n00bs.

I'd be highly shocked if future generations didn't have scaley lizard like skin, and giant thumbs.

And I know they will all wear silver space suits all of the time, and have funny little dots besides their eyes.
