@silverwizard I consider that a good thing, even if we were to ignore safety.

I've never had enough of a mastery in any specific topic to share more than basic knowledge with the kids. Truth be told, many aspects of their general knowledge exceeded mine before they hit puberty. No doubt the result of growing up in a world with more information and more connections to others.

At 10, I was playing with ninja turtles in the sandbox with my little brother. At the same age, my eldest became an artist, cosplayer, and surprisingly good TikTok user. My son, by 10, knew at least twice what I knew at that age and keeps learning more at breakneck speeds. He very much has the ADHD/ASD combo subtype that makes him want to know everything there is to know about the universe. I think he's halfway there with as much as he's told me.

It's amazing how smart today's kids are. Enjoy the ride. It keeps getting better.
