Teaching college students, I agree that phones and 'need' are largely the culprit.

Loss of typing skill, trouble shooting skill, and file directory skill.

Better at cameras generally

Congrats on making me want to pull my youngest from public school for a year or so, so I can teach her typing, scripting, the command line, etc ... (also, phonics) ... Blows my mind that TYPING as a late-elementary-school glass is basically gone in our school district, nor is it a class that's even available in middle or high-school.

I agree with Chapo. Maybe you can teach these things in addition to what your kid learns at school? Might be a fun way to spend time together anyway.

That's how we handled it when we home-schooled the older three for a while. They ultimately asked to go back to regular school, but they had stayed ahead of their peers.
