Remember When We Were Kids: Our parents used to say the same thing about many of the things that we used to enjoy as kids. Computers were dangerous, MTV was bad, Teen Magazines were in appropriate, blah blah blah...
The issue was never the magazine, MTV or the Computers. The issue was that our parents didn't understand them.
Not understanding the future was totally cool in the 80's a 90's but in the 2000's and beyond that way of thinking will be detrimental to your child's future.
The information age will not be as forgiving as our childhood was.
