[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have 3 kids - 2 in high school and 1 in elementary school. I brought up excessive use of tech at schools for years. Technology is here to stay. My older kids were in elementary during covid, could barely type and survived covid virtual school.

My youngest reads a lot and likes to write.

I feel the people who are most vocal at our school are parents of kids who like video games and play online. All three of my kids do not play video games. They all play sports daily and play board games but not video games.[/quote]

It’s an issue for all kids, not just ones playing games at home.  Even the “smartest” kids at the best schools are a dumber than they used to be.  There have been articles about this recently.  Harvard has had to add remedial math classes.  College professors have also noted lack of writing ability among students.  The SAT has also had to change format to be easier
