Hello, Why don't children play outside with friends anymore, like in their father's or grandfather's time?

I saw a film, feel free to take a look above.
Your opinions and answers are welcome and requested, this is a topic for parents.
Hello, my question is why children my age, or younger ones like my brothers, don't play properly anymore.
It's different for us, we live in the country and yes, we still play outside a lot with our best friends and my younger brothers with their friends.
We all have a computer, smartphone and TV in our room.
But somehow we get bored, so we just call a friend and ask if we want to play and we meet up in the village or right here on our farm.
Dad or mom would pull the plug on us if we played on the computer for more than two hours.
Dad said your friends are out there, they're more important than the computer, take your brothers with you and go out.
We like to play together in the hayloft or behind our stables on the soft meadow.
We like to play cops and robbers with friends, or jump into the hay from the top of the hayloft, or play fight with boys in a soft haystack.
Building something, building a hut yourself, together with your best friends and siblings.
During the summer holidays, we go camping with our friends along with the younger friends of my twin brothers.
There in the tent just among friends and brothers, sleeping together and helping and keeping each other busy, sometimes without parents, just friends.
Swimming and romping at the lake and enjoying friendship together.
My hobbies are water polo and BJJ wrestling at school, and I was active in the village volunteer fire department as a youth firefighter and before that in the children's fire department.
That's how it is with us.
But why is it like this with other children here in the country? Who still goes out to play with friends and really have fun?
Kind regards, Felix 11y

So here with us in the city there is that which play football or basketball, skate or make other things, even the very little ones at us on the playground. But generally longed for the whole society it becomes really less. The use of social media and streaming services as well as gaming continues to slide towards the younger, which is certainly also true of sex.
In principle, it can no longer be completely stopped and not completely undone the current state. But one can clarify and improve the handling of these things and provide them in the future. This starts in the parents’ house, goes over the children’s ridges to the school and the training and even the profession.
Today, there are companies that actively promote social cooperation in their factories, which I think is quite impressive. We must promote and strengthen this from the beginning to the end. I think we were pretty negligent in the last few decades. But there is an extreme problem and this is clearly shown in the movie “The Social Dilemma”.
We are sometimes extremely dependent on any kind of social media and if they are just emails. AI will also play a very important role in the future, even in the social field, I have no doubt about it. We need to observe these developments very closely and to adapt them to the situation. Nevertheless, I have to keep thinking about what Elon says that we are just the bootloader.
Erlich tells me that someone who wants to transfer his mind to a cyborg is quite afraid if I keep thinking about the future of humanity. We should be really very careful in dealing with AI in the future and also things that are already underway are rethinking again. Everyone still has it in the hands of their own children and their behaviour and you should think about it well.
This is my personal opinion.
Peace
Thank you, I have a good parental house, and are normally raised in the village.
I have younger brothers, these are twin brothers and my cousins who also live our farm.
My dad and my aunt are siblings. She’s also my partntante.
Both families have a great relationship with each other, my father loves his younger sister very much.
My mother is also the girlfriend from childhood buses girlfriends.
They’re rural women active in the place.
That sounds all very nice and Familary, I envy you to be immortal, because I myself rather don’t know that. But I am also happy for you and all the others in your family. It is always good to read something like this, because in general my view of the world is dark. When I read something like that, it always reminds me to look again at the beautiful things. Thank you for that;-)
Yes Of course 😉
Thank you, if you like, we can become friends.
Then we can talk private stuff.
Thanks and have a lot of fun;-)
Please stay as you are a fine person.
I just played with my younger brothers, and I’m kidding.
My cousins and a couple of friends are coming to enjoy the day.
The parents also come to grill.
I think that parents are getting more and more cautious and fewer cliques – at least in older children.
Often it is said that an adult should always look at it – told me about an acquaintance that at the time the whole neighborhood had the kids “in the feeling/eye”.
In cities this is becoming more difficult, only in some housing estates it works a bit.
Thanks are out of the Eifel, and we still play a lot outside when it doesn’t rain when we have attic where our rooms are or back on the hay floor.
That sounds really nice, I would have liked a childhood!
I may be someone who doesn’t do that anymore…
I used to play outside until I was 14, even in the rain.
But then the computer came to get it first with 13 and then zoomed a lot… with 16 started working…
Now I’m hardly gonna get to the zoking… work so even in a workshop in the basement of my parents…
But yes, I have few social contacts… unfortunately because I couldn’t care for them.
Thank you, but I find a shame of friendship that you have built from the Kita and Primary School, and no time to cultivate friendship.
I hope you’ve had a good time with your guys, having fun and adventure.
Yes, only unfortunately, all friendships were always only for a short time because they have usually become assholes and fell back. I have 1 2 friends standing behind me

Control of many parents
not exactly child-friendly environment in many cities/Dörfern
Hello, my parents are not control parents.
And don’t be afraid of what we’re doing among friends, dead and playing.
It depends on what we want to do and where we meet that parents are informed.
We live in a village where everyone knows, even in the neighbor villages, where we also have friends.
We children are connected to the primary school where we all know each other, five villages in the municipality share a large elementary school in our village.
So we are in contact and can be friends, and become best friends.
Hello, my parents are not controlling parents
they do not have to be
Parents tend to become more and more cautious. And also the children simply grow up a lot with technical devices, as you get used to it and of course it is then required.
What if I think what our parents let my friends and me play at that time…
I wouldn’t let my children play unattended in a silent quarry of the parents of a friend;)
Okay, thanks, it’s not that dangerous to the country.
We have possibilities where we can play well and safely, and we can play properly.
We my family live on a beautiful farm, and we boys my younger brothers regularly have friends in the house to visit.
On weekends, most of the best friends of ours also stayed.
Well, it wasn’t all so dangerous. That was the most violent example.
Papa said that some things should be solved among friends, sometimes in the opinion of those who have with friends.
Trade on a compromise, among friends or among brothers.
That’s what children do.
PC and Co. are still only supplements, no replacement of social contacts.
Thank you, yes you’re right, we live in a modern world.
Even here with us, agriculture, the 🚜 tractor drives by itself.
But play really well with his friends and siblings, where even body contact with his friend in the hay floor may well rise.
Proper friendship with the same age.
In the city, the streets of play are full of dogs, because the owners are asocial AND lazy.
So the kids I know play all day out
