    let alone being required to use them for schoolwork.

    I was born in 1991. In elementary school I had assignments that required a computer. This is not new.

      Me too, they didn’t require constant connectivity. I went to the library or computer lab. Lots of kids in my class didn’t have a home computer. And even though my family did, it didn’t give me an advantage on those assignments. We all had to manage doing them at school on a school computer. Thank God they didn’t have Facebook.
