Did you have a tablet growing up?

No, because they didn't exist. I did get a computer though once my parents could afford one.

Computers/tablets/phones/devices in general can be a good and useful tool. They can also be used to entertain or watch shows that are made for learning. My daughter watches mind numbing stuff as well as learning shows. She also plays outside and reads probably 10+ kids books a night. I'd say most kids fit this same mold in 2017.

Kids in the 1800's had to read books in the candlelight, with no air conditioning, in New Orleans in August. Yea, no thanks. Not going backwards my man.
