   We did not refuse to reply. We have contacted the author to find out who he contacted within the company, because it was the first time we have heard about it! Edit: I work for Opera Software/FastMail.FM

    FastMail runs on completely separate infrastructure and there were no indications of a compromise. However to be on the safe side we've taken a number of precautions including blowing away every machine (fai-project.org FTW!) and updat

    I asked myself the same question years ago with TV and I figured in the end that watching TV was a complete waste of my time. These days I probably watch under 10 minutes a week in total if that.

    Undo send? In order to do that, we would have to hold all outbound emails until a delay threshold was reached... I'm not sure if that's a good idea.

    His birthday was last week, and we considered it but put it off because of the temper tantrums. The reason why we're still undecided is like you say there are definitely some positives there. Word recognition at 3.5 is great! What we tried

    Yeah, I'm totally cool with them being obsessed about something possibly constructive... but I don't think that's possible at 3?

    So far, reading has been passive. I'm liking the idea of prompting for the character's thoughts. That sounds really interesting and positive. Thanks for the suggestions. And you're damn right. Parenting is not easy!

    We didn't want a blanket ban because of the aggression, but we've now got a couple more avenues to try now. Hopefully something will work.

    Will definitely be drawing pictures tonight. Since he still can't read, a visual schedule seems like a good idea.

    Thanks for the comment. You're right. I think the lessons of moderation and delayed gratification should be a goal and not a blanket ban. Finding things equally as fun is hard. He knows what he wants... what works is distracting him from wh

    Although I agree that exposure to computers is great for kids, how young is too young? I've got a toddler (3yo) who plays games on my phone. He's actually pretty good at some of the platform games on it (astonishingly good considering his a

    I disagree. I think it's more like how microwaves were in the 50s. Some people have probably heard of them, but are still suspicious of their usefulness... And then one day everyone has one, and you can buy them at your local appliance stor

    The problem of having to type in your password on an unsecured machine still exists. To access files in this situation, a better approach would have been to upload the file to a webserver. You can then safely download it from the library co
