    What do you mean by that?

    Literally teach them how to! When I deem them mature enough, of course.

    Of course, there’s the chance that they don’t like tech.

    I’m pretty confident that they will. If I get to raise the kid as I see fit. But you know I’m not expecting them to be a hobbyist or anything. Knowing small things like circumventing network blocks might be important in the future weather that would in a school enviroment or an oppresive regime. The latter of which is getting closer in my country to reality each passing day.

    I think watching over kids without them knowing is the key. Time limit is stupid in my opinion. Obviously porn sites and other appropriate sites will be blocked network wide and when the time comes I’ll slowly teach the child how to circumvent the measures and even create their own.

    As you have pointed out, feeling under pressure will definitely detrimental for the child development so it’s best to avoid that.
