What Have We Done?????

Can you remember the name of your first grade teacher?

All these years later and I remember her as if I last saw her yesterday. The good teachers are leaving the field. That leaves those that show videos and AI.

Just saying.

I was already hooked to electronics before, most folk even knew what was already in play.

My Mother said she had everyone in the theater laughing, because she freaked out when watching "Jumping Jack Flash",  in a theater. She said she jumped up and screaming, "That is it!" That is what my daughter does." That is how she talks to people around the globe, with a computer screen.

She said she had tried to explain it to so many of her friends, and they could not understand how it worked. So she was so happy to be able to give them methinks to relate to.

It started with the radio, took hold with the TV, and took control with the internet (World Wide Web). We were not blind sided. We chose to reject the knowledge we were given.

Easy solution. How Not To Raise I-Pad children?

Don't be I-Pad parents.

The internet can be an amazing, useful, and beneficial tool, if you learn how to use it, instead of allowing it to use you.

Ms. O'Hare!

42 years later and I can still see her face. Much much love and appreciation to that woman.

Miss Stidum, very pretty young blond haired woman who paid a whole lot of nice attention to a very hyperactive 6 year old who was put on ritalin, and stood with my parents to get the school to write a letter to take me off of it. she said i wasn't the same happy kid i was before, and was always depressed after being prescribed.

ETA: meant to click nightskye's reply button, but after seeing reading flicker's figured i'd let it stand.
