[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I keep hearing again and again that public schools are using screens to control kids- rowdy at lunch, put on a video. Laptops can access PBS kids- work out teachers let kids access games as much as they want. The companies selling the laptops and software are getting rich having lobbied the school boards. Some screen time is fine- but most schools are over doing it! I think we are doing our kids a dis service[/quote] I get my children's light-speed reports (FCPS ES) and they are only on their laptops 2-3 days a week for maybe 20-30. minutes. The parents at the school complained a lot last year about too much computer use, and the admin listened. I suggest that if you're upset about computer use in your child's school, you speak up. So many parents just come on here and whine but don't actually take any action to do something about it.[/quote]
