I was always amazed at their effortless expertise (I promoted one of my shift supervisors to his position at age 20), and they were somewhat amazed that a geezer like me (this was five years ago) could actually "get it." I took that as a compliment... I hope it was meant that way. <B>;-)</B><BR/><BR/>I hear ya, Jenny. And I think it's a great good thing you encourage the kids to play with computers. Their future is right in front of them, so it's best to start early.Buckhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05319116022465066060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1698252811507584577.post-81768472751762625302008-06-19T09:13:00.000-06:002008-06-19T09:13:00.000-06:00My daughter ALWAYS wants to get on and play games.

I said "What are you doing?????"<BR/><BR/>"Sending email," she said seriously.<BR/><BR/>YIKES!!!!! She could have wiped out my whole cyber life with a few clicks on that mouse.<BR/><BR/>Kids are amazing...wonderful little sponges while us old fogies stumble around trying to do the simplest things!Towandahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18245494480579308875noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1698252811507584577.post-51002364491228928502008-06-18T17:35:00.000-06:002008-06-18T17:35:00.000-06:00As a teacher, I am always impressed with children's handiness at technology!<BR/>Hard to believe, but I made it through college (graduated in 1994) with just a word processing typewriter! NO computer! NO email! How did I do it? <BR/>My grandparents just got their first computer- a laptop. Of course, they wanted it just to play some games on. But I hope I can get them to surf the Internet and at least read my blog, lol! ;)Pony Girlhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02464088874054923635noreply@blogger.com
