There is a significant change in how the world works today vs. how it did when I was in short pants. I generally kept up because I stayed at the bleeding edge, but I'm behind the crest of the wave now.

Many of the skills that were important in the past will not be or are not important now or in the future.

Writing in cursive? Archaic. Forget that I got graded on it in grade school.... It's not required today.

I've seen teens of today communicate. Looks like they communicate among themselves just fine. I may not understand it, but I'm also archaic.

New times, new ways. The rate of change will only increase.

But can they communicate well with anyone outside their peer group?
