[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I agree 100%. But of course you’ve offended the hoards of parents that are too lazy to parent their kids. Teachers see it too. I mentioned to my kids seconds grade teacher during the course of the parent teacher conference in the fall that my kid doesn’t have a tablet and isn’t allowed video games and [b]the teacher said “well there you go, that’s why he’s so well behaved and doing so well.” [/b][/quote]

You realize the teacher was giving you the verbal equivalent of a pat on the head like the needy little lapdog you are, don’t you?[/quote]

Wow wow wow this topic really hits a nerve for some people! [/quote]

Yes. They are positively RAGING at the very notion that they bear any responsibility for the screen addled kids they’re raising. Astonishing.[/quote]

It is moderation. I remember people blaming violent video games for shootings a few decades ago before smart phones. If anything, I think the internet allows socially awkward people to be more social.

My kids are busy with school and activities. Yes, they play games and text with friends but it does not take up the make out of their day. I don’t think it is that different from our distractions when we were kids.[/quote]
