"Nuff said?" Er, you've said absolutely nothing beyond giving us some stupid pat assertion under the delusion it's not worth backing it up. Cool opinion, bro!
I never said that kids don't need email. Not even close. I commented on the parents' behavior. Thanks for misquoting me.
I'm a parent. All of my school age children have email accounts. I made a conscience decision not to create Gmail accounts for them, because due to their ages it would have violated Google's terms of service. In other words, I read Google's rules and then decided to go elsewhere. It took me less than fifteen minutes to find an alternative email service that allowed my children to have accounts.
I do feel sympathy for the kids who lost their accounts, but I feel zero sympathy for the parents who created those accounts and are now whining instead of admitting their mistake.
That said, I'm more curious to know why this is you decided to apparently come back and post this one comment just a day short of five years after your previous one on December 19 2006?!
Five years ago? Really? Try about a month ago. But why did you even mention this? Does it add to the discussion? Is a comment in some way less worthy if it comes from someone who does not submit comments at a specific frequency?
If you want to disagree with me, that's fine. But if you are going to do so in public, you should at least try to respond to what I actually said.
