She would do the same or better had you sat down with her and taught them to her yourself.

Pretty much every study out there shows that low tech is by far the better teaching method. Even when you get older, classic pen/paper note taking students typically outperform kids using laptops and tablets as their note taking tools. The smart people who make your tablets even have started schools in Silicon Valley to be all low tech.

Classic methods require time though, most of us are too lazy for such nonsense.

So when I was driving to Houston, I should have printed flashcards to hold up for my 1 year-old to look at through a mirror from his real facing carseat for the six hours?

I hear you man. I don't want my kids on phone/tablets all the time either. But denying them social norms isn't a perfect parenting method either.

My kids are incredibly active in sports and school activities. I'm not the least bit worried about their social and active characteristics.

Thanks for the responses everyone.
