My dad gave me a laptop with games and basic tools on it when I was 2 years old, and i figured that out pretty quickly. When I was 6, I was allowed to use the internet but there were limitations for time and keyloggers. My parents gave up when they found out I was booting up with linux off a flash drive at 14. I feel like I learned more about technology when there were obstacles to overcome, rather than instant gratification. I would start my own kids off air-gapped and then gradually allow access, since for me it gave me a healthy respect for danger and taught me to find solutions.
