children of the future?

Tweet

have you notice how our child at a very young age, are well verse with the use of many technologies. As young as 5 years old can open the computer and turn it off the way it should be. And for a first grader ( usually 7 years old )to actually used the microsoft office and paint,as easy as if playing just playing with it. I have watch my son draw some pictures in paint and even design it and color it for just about 5 minutes because He already knows the use of all the command tools. And yes, even using Adobe Photoshop by a 7 year old. ( He can easily grasped the teachings of his father in using this software ). Not to mention that many children as young as 6 years old already has a celfone with them. I guess there will comes a time, that all our children regardless of their level in school ( elementary, highschool or college ) will just bring laptop instead of heavy troly bags and books and notebooks. With laptop becoming cheaper and cheaper. My only fear though is that, will they be able to write by hands if that time comes, since they can just click and link each site they want to learn and see, then click print if they want a hard copy. How time flies...
