Hey Parents! Are We Raising a Generation of Nincompoops?
From MSNBC.
"Second-graders who can't tie shoes or zip jackets. Four-year-olds in Pull-Ups diapers. Five-year-olds in strollers. Teens and preteens befuddled by can openers and ice-cube trays. College kids who've never done laundry, taken a bus alone or addressed an envelope.
Are we raising a generation of nincompoops? And do we have only ourselves to blame? Or are some of these things simply the result of kids growing up with push-button technology in an era when mechanical devices are gradually being replaced by electronics?"
I think we're on our second generation of them--my own sister's kids relied on Velcro-strapped sneakers because they never learned to tie their own, and digital clocks for telling time because they never learned to read a clock face...and this was back in the 80's. I can only imagine what THEIR kids are missing out on!
