Pathetic.
Aside from the physical sciences, math and engineering, what’s the use of these kindergartens? More of the same?
When does learning become learning again?
“what’s the use of these kindergartens”
Instead of sending me to kindergarten my mom taught me how to sew. Came in handy and way better than kindergarten. I can make anything from a coat to a tent.
BUT more importantly she taught me to read. And made me read.
Got rid of cable when my oldest was about 4. We had weekly treks to the library.
Later all our computers were in one part of the basement only. They didn’t spend much time playing games but reading about there interests.
Parents are also at fault here. I see 4 years now sitting playing a game on their mom’s phone!!! I ask kids after a good snow around here “Did you play in it?” The answer is always “No, I was on my computer or x-box.” Parents are just as glued to their computers.
We are gonna pay a high price for this technology.
Maybe the Amish are the only ones who get it!!!!
