[quote=Anonymous]My kid is starting kindergarten next year. We are trying to give the kids a no screens childhood, with the exception of FaceTiming grandparents who live far away. We don’t own a TV and no tablets or other devices available for the kids. I am so stressed about what I witnessed when I toured our local “good” public school. Smart boards in every classroom and a room full of kindergarteners on computers. I saw kids watching Numberblocks and others learning the alphabet through slides on the smart board. I just don’t understand why we as a society have accepted this as the norm. We don’t have top private school money and are scrambling to find low cost options but we’re not religious and we’re also very liberal politically and multicultural so not a fit everywhere. I am typing this because I’m at the point of screaming into the void. [/quote]
