When asked why she didnt use a calculator, she replied Mom, I use technology. Ignoring the kid opted to Google on their phone instead of swiping in the calculator function, I feel disconnected from a generation for the first time. Standalone calculators are becoming the new typewriter. --- A show of kindness may not do much help, but a show of cruelty may do much harm. <cite>cuttin_in_farm posted [p:957653610] in Kids don't...
