My son is only three years old... he already knows how to shut down my laptop. Should I be proud of it or should I be scared because he's too young and knows things not for his age.. (no body thought him how to shut down the laptop, he might have observed it from us)

No I wouldn't be worried. It's a good thing he knows how to turn it on and off. I be more worried about what he would or wouldn't do on the computer when you are or are not around. But most 3 year old's do not know how to do much on a computer at all.

Their brains are amazing, they could easily absorb information. My kids are like that too, they could even install applications But i minimize them from computers, i let them play outside than be infront of the computer now.

Thanks, they said that he is advance for his age. I let him play outside with other kids, I even bought a top (turumpo) and yoyo for him to play... I want him to experience my childhood games, for him to develope patience and sportmanships... and how to deal with other kids.

My son, now 9 years old. My son is also now able to use a computer. Initially, I was very worried. But now, I feel proud. I continue to accompany my child, when my kids use computer. And gives light, good and bad.

I will not get worried about this because this shoes that your son grasp each of the things which you do in front of him. So try to do such simple things in front of him this will make him to learn those things quite easily. make sure that you don't you bad or rubbish things in front of him.

It is purely about his mental-approach and mental-level. However, that is comparatively a dawn of a new era.
