Mobile Broadband for Kids
December 8th, 2009Your kids need to be on the cutting edge of technology, and mobile broadband is the key to this. If they’re out and about they need to know how things in the real world are going to be for them in the future, and virtually everyone who is moving forward in the world today uses mobile broadband…
So why not introduce it to them early? It’s the perfect thing to do for them this Christmas, in fact at any time really. I couldn’t put a particular age on it, but if i was forced to choose, i’d say that kids are responsible to use mobile broadband with the correct parental controls enabled by the age of ten i suppose.
My daughter has been using mobile broadband for a few years now and one of the greatest things i’ve noticed is her increased willingness to complete her homework; simply because she isn’t restricted to the house, or if she is in the house, she needn’t be in the same room! This mobile broadband use has another bonus attached. It means that my wife and i can use our home PC more often, and have a little more adult time together (not what you think), because we can send our daughter packing into another room to surf the internet, or even to another house!
Don’t neglect your kids and leave them in the dark ages of technology. Kids today are learning Information technology from a very early age. I have a six year old that can do all sorts of things on a computer. Mobile broadband is as fundamental these days to computing as footwear is for walking.
