    IMO around 2006 is when you see the decline. It’s the delineation between kids who started with computers, and kids that started with phones or tablets.

      This is why my kids get to use the PC in the living room. Wireless keyboard and mouse, gcompris from boot until they are a bit older.

      Though I am thinking of moving it all onto the htpc so its JF, emulators, gcompris, etc, but I haven’t decided how I want to do that yet. I was thinking of doing NFC for login, but my youngest is creative and would figure out he could grab mom’s phone to get game access.

      TBD. And a huge digression.

        kde neon and pam time for my kids. my 7 yr old is the only kid who knows how to use a computer in class, when friends visit for minecraft they try to touch the screen… computer literacy is something I intend to pass on.
