Yeh I hope not. He loves reading books since a very early age - I want to keep it that way I wish. :D

Why r kids so attracted to these monitors and keyboards is beyond me.

Mine always play on www.miniclip.com when they come round. I activly encourage both (11 and 8) to use the computer as it is a skill they are going to have to use to be successful in life. both can use word and powerpoint fairly well and can email, surf (under supervision).

Errrmmm no they teach puters at what I consider too young of an age at school.

My niece (only 6) comes up to me asks me if she can use my laptop.

I say ' sorry love this is for adults and not for games '

She says ' I use a laptop in school, I know windows blah blah blah '

I say ' Do you know how to use fluxbox under linux and how to patch a linux kernel - show me where the start menu is (there isn't one) now go get lost ' ;)

yup when my little un was bout 1 and a half she kept on hitting the power button on the keyboard and bang there goes what i was doin.

i know how ya feel but it does get better and you might as well let her play with yer pc m8 because when marina started nursery in april this year we got a letter asking permission to let her use the computers :Yikes:

So you got a letter asking for permission.... Hmmmm that seems silly as most parents would accept and so for those poor kids left out it must be a real mare especially when all the kids are playing with those lovely glossy shiny things.

Hmmmmm its gonna be a tricky ride for me isn't it :rolleyes:
