You sold almost everything that wasn't a necessity and moved to the middle of no where to live off the land?? No Internet, phone, cable. There would be electricity and plumbing.lol

she has a phone but only uses it to text me or call, she just not into talking or texting much, so if that went away she would care less but if no computer or laptop,or her ipod,or the game systems or tv, she couldn't handle that at all. she definitely a materiial child but since she also so creative she just think of ways to make those things work, you give her a box and some cups and see a phone would be made, LOL, you give her a box and she turn that into a tv and then just do shadow puppets or something like that for entertainment.

We are debating letting them keep portable game systems maybe one each. Those can be charged in the car and I don't want to make them totally weird ;o)

1 mom liked this

mine would panic and cry like a baby. No computer or internet? or phone or cable? She'd be calling 911 to tell them her parents lost it, LOL

My kids love their modern toys way too much, lol

lol you know honestly I thought mine would to. We did a trial run last summer for 10 days. I had cell service though surprisingly.lol My kids never wanted to come home! Now they did have an original  nintendo we let them play once.lol But they ask to go back all the time. We would move now but our cabin isn't good enough for winter living :/ so we have to build a new one which takes money.lol
