I've had people give me the lecture about the computer before too. My DD9 was very computer savy at two and all my kids used it young. I lean toward it being one of those moderation things. Also, take into account that GT kids tend to do many things younger, and that isn't necessarily a bad thing. Now letting them sit in front of it all day at that age would be a bad...

My DD9 and one of my DD6's are Pokemon ga ga. My oldest DD started getting really bad when she found out that the creator has aspergers (which she has). I tried for a year to put her off prior and kept the cards to a minimum all to no avail. I'm just a mean mommy who limits DS time "to a not fair level". It amazes me how their little minds can absorb and catalog all those stats on each of the different charaters since there are what, something like 350 now! crazy
