Yes, I agree with it being more genuine. Everyone was trying to figure out what the Internet meant and what you could do. It really felt like trekking into the unknown! I loved stumbling upon random websites, the flash games, the websites here and there, the blogs, the niche forums… I feel like the rise of social media and companies and the fact that companies figured out the people themselves were the product ruined a part of it somehow. I wish you good luck in incorporating that sense of adventure to your kids - I know it’s not easy with all the dangers online and outside. But the fact you’re trying to do that despite all is already so awesome.
