Kids On Gadgets

My nephew who will turn 9 years old on the 8th of next month talked to me using the ym texts. When my brother and I were 9 year's old, our generation was different. We probably play the native games on the cemented sidewalks and play jackstones or basketball. No computers or PS3 or DSi games. In fact, I my first hands on with my desktop was 7 years ago and I was a struggling pc user. Most of the time I would call my cousin or my brother for help if the screen was hidden. Funny huh! Anyway, my nephew asked me that we will talk using the ym but, he was not on my list. He just asked me what to do and with simple instructions, we were able to use the video cam.Kids are skilled when exposed with gadgets. When I gave my simple instructions, he was able to fix the blurry video camera and added a friend in his yahoo list. He also wanted to talk to me using the skype and since he forgot his old account, he asked me how to create a new account. He reads the instructions and was able to contact me. I was a pround aunt!
