This is retarded. They are holding up their kids development to make a point; especially the older one. So while his classmates are whizzing around the internet, this kid has to work that much harder...

If they want to do this correctly, they should be providing dial-up and a 133MHZ computer for their 5 year old (they probably have an AOL cd kicking around too; lord knows they still sell their dial-up).

...I'm so pissed off I can't even put together a proper response to this.

The fact of the matter is that if your kids aren't looking up from their iphones, that's a parenting issue, not a technology one.
