[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I really think we need to get rid of these laptops for everything. My kid is addicted and we can’t break the addiction because he needs the damn laptop for everything he does at school.[/quote] What school level? And do you monitor your child's Lightspeed report? I ask because I have found my MS does NOT have to use their laptop all the time, I'd say <10% of the day is active schoolwork on the laptop. If your kid is just circumventing the firewall then your option is to take away the laptop and write all the teachers. Tell them that your child won't have a laptop for a week (ideally you'd give the teachers warning ahead of time) due to misuse. Also, while monitoring your child's internet use is NOT the teacher's job they generally are quite willing to help if you message them. [/quote]
