Developers do not look for reports on social media, so they will not see it and all it does is clutter up the feed.

Is it wise to allow a 3 yo to use computers?
I'm not an expert by any means,but digital autism is no joke. This is just too much for their developing brains.
I think it's likely that the type of content children are exposed to matters more than the medium. Children who are exposed early to digital technology will have an advantage in adapting to our increasingly digital society over those who are prevented from accessing digital media until they are much older.
GCompris is an educational program; it's not equivalent to watching Spongebob (no offence to Spongebob).
I agree. I was grew up playing lots of games like Incredible Machine, Sim City, Zoo Tycoon, Age of Empires 2, etc. They were technical and challenging mentally. Taught me a lot about money management, logistics, testing theories, and solving puzzles.
I also watched a lot of Nat Geo, Discovery and History Channel, (Before it enshitified) read lots of science encyclopedias and books, used the Encarta CD-ROM encyclopedia often.
My siblings and our friends also played outside a lot. Built forts, played paintball, explored the woods, that kind of stuff.
The medium matters much less than the content.
