Why are kids these days constantly on Facebook or XBox, what happened to playing outside?

I am 23 years old, so its not like that I am a grandpa by today’s time. During our childhood, we used to play outside after school, hang out with other kids, socialize in the real sense of the word. But kids these days seem to be on facebook all day playing farmville, mafia wars or maybe throwing around digital sheep. Other than that they have their gaming consoles (portable ones as well).

Its alarming how obese kids these days are at such a young age. But even this doesn’t compare to missing out on the joys of playing outside and just roaming around.

What do you guys think?
