[QUOTE="tiredmommy, post: 439261, member: 1722"] No... not crazy. But good luck with that. :winks: I say that because children are immersed in technology like never before, with all the advantages and pitfalls. But... it becomes very difficult for a child to be the only one in their social circle without something (anything, including technology). I think, as a parent, that it's more important that your future children learn to use technology within the framework of your family's values than having a predetermined age that they can use to access technology. You may not have a 16year old for another 20 years and the world will continue to change in that time. My advice? Focus on the intangibles for your child: honesty, character, responsibilty, respect.
