My kids are around 15 and 16 so they know how to use a computer but they download things and do certain things on them to slow them down freeze them up and get viruses. Such as the one that makes pop ups load every couple seconds.

In my friends house, I come to observed their 4 year old kid doing something in the computer. I thought he's just messing around the computer and ask my friend that he's doing with it. The father tells me that he's configuring the computer software. I don't believe him of course, but when I examine more closely what the child was doing, I was amazed to observed that hes actually changing the computer's basic configuration. Changing the monitor settings, desktop settings, and other stuffs in it. I knew that this kid would become an computer guru in the near future.

I have a little cousin who is only 8 years old and he can use the computer like a kid in high school. When I was 8 I was busy watching movies, reading comics and playing with my action figures. The children of today have access to all this technology (computer, dvd's, videogames), I sometimes wonder if this is a good thing or a bad thing. I also wonder what children 50-100 years from now will have access to.
