My kid is only 7 so he's not really doing much internet research yet. One thing I do plan to instill as he delves into it.......be skeptical. Just because it's on the net doesn't make it true. Just because many people are agreeing with something on the net doesn't make it true. Look for source documents/data.....don't just trust the interpretation of others.

Don't do those things and you might end up worried that the Earth is going to freeze....no melt....no freeze.....no melt....no freeze.........:biggrin2:

You first have to educate them about cyberbullies.

You don't have to. Don't kid yourself, they know more about so many things that it will shock you if you ask them.

I just gave my daughter a laptop when she was five and she raised herself. It's kind of like being abandoned in the forest and being raised by wolves, but cleaner and with better language skills.

That's how I learned computers. On a 386, running DOS 3.1.

3.1 was the best OS ever written.

3.1 was the best OS ever written.

It was probably written by Shakespeare then. Either him or Lennon and McCartney.

Can't disagree with you there papasmerf. At the time though it was painful cause all I really wanted was to play games.

Keeping with the Shakespeare theme I will add one caveat DOS 3.5 improved the EDLIN process by adding a EDIT function.
Which is pretty much so today MS NOTE.

It's getting really difficult. Trying to read and understand on the gender/transgender plus the political words being used lately to educate them but I am lost on words. My grandchildren asked me questions that I couldn't answer. Is there a new how to do/answer questions for the 2018 people?.

How do you guys do it and where can I find the answers?.

I wrote my first program on an Atari 400 using "Basic".

10 Print "MM's a Jerk. ";
20 Go to 10

I made tax entry and printing software on a C 64, plus some games like "tank battle", and "lunar lander".

Really helped with my profession as an automation programmer.

I have done my best to instill core values in my one nearing legal voting age:

Be honest.
Is it kind, is it fair, is it necessary.
Question everything.
Stand up for those who cannot do so for them self.
Stand up for your values.
Don't cast judgement on others for race, religion, gender or sexuality.
Do hold people accountable for their actions.
Never allow someone to make you feel like they are better then you.
You're no better than anyone else.
Always give what you hope to get back.
Make an effort - it's a lost art form.
Virginity is to be valued - you only have one and you will remember your first always.
Value yourself, love yourself, respect yourself.
No one owes you anything... Earn it!
Work for it, fight for it, and anything is possible.
Sexwork is honest work.
Profiting from another's detriment is not morally acceptable.
Vote - it matters.
Volunteer.
Be cautious of greed, materialistic needs, and selfishness... But remember self care.
Change the world with kindness, but kick down barriers.
Ask for help - it's okay.
Don't use people or abuse help - it's abhorrent.
People are not disposable.
You are responsible for your feelings. Not others feelings, as they are not responsible for yours.
Respect everyone until they show they do not deserve it, but don't respect unfounded, shitty opinions based on falsehoods.

Basically it has been my job as a mom to guide another while they learn to navigate the world, buffer the hurts but not shelter or protect them so they are unable to function when life kicks them.

My human has made me incredibly proud of the person they are, and broken my heart with how large their capacity to care for others and the world around them is. At the end of the day it was in their hands and they've nailed it!

[h=2]How do you teach your children or grandchildren in this internet age?.[/h]
You don't. They want to be and feel special without working plus living for free at their old age while taking advantage of their old folks.

Not much to teach there.
