Hi Peter,

it's the last paragraph from the link provided by Liam,
http://www.coding2learn.org/blog/2013/07/29/kids-cant-use-computers/ .

I don't read such long texts very often, but this time I did.

Another quote from this 8 year old text:

"If 20 years ago 5% of us had a computer in our homes, then you could
pretty much guarantee that 95% of those computer owners were technically
literate. Today, let's assume that 95% of us have a computer in our
homes, then I would guess that around 5% of owners are technically
literate.

This is scary and I'm sure the real statistics would be scarier still.
It's something we should all be worried about."

Regards,
Ralf
