My daughter is concerned that her 4 year old shows no interest in writing - or drawing. We realised that he hardly ever sees an adult writing. My children's generation grew up surrounded by adults writing all the time - notes, letters, shopping lists, phone numbers etc etc. And of course children like to copy adults. Now all of these things are done on the phone or computer.
I don't know what the answer is. There is very little incentive for children to learn how to form letters anymore when they can use a phone. Perhaps they don't even need to!!
Is it me or am I getting mixed messages
