Have computers really helped kids? - HYIPs Talk

When children were in school, I refused to have a set of encyclopedias in the house. We went to the library, and I taught them how to do research just as I was taught.

In my opinion, you don’t get the feeling of accomplishment doing research on the computer that you get with the old fashioned way of using books. But like Miss Maltese, I guess I’m hopelessly old fashioned.

are you agree?

I feel we shouldn't keep our children away from computer just because we expect them to get in touch with the machine, only when they have the thing in their syllabus. Being accustomed with the new technology, and with the new machine operations will help them getting easy with it, and they will get help for it in future.

BUT,
What happened with Many children in US , many of them become victim of child porn, always stay in room all day long.
no social activity.

One Question :
Do you prefer your child to have computer or not?

nowadays IT become so powerful , so i think it's good that kid can be taught about computer as a young age cos it's good for them for the later time .

Yes computers have really helped kids in brain development and also prepare them for future challenge.

If that so, will you let your child to have their own computer in their room?

yes, computers might not help children get degrees but it does definately help in getting one. internet as such is full of un explored information.
