Do you think you were exposed to the internet too early?

[Christsdisciple15]

If so, please state some reasons why. What age would you have preferred? If you disagree, also state why.

Additionally, what do you think we can do to prevent this?

[God_of_Thunder]

I do not think that, because the internet wasn't really a common household thing when I was a kid.

Our first computer only ran DOS, and everything was stored on 6" floppy disks, and little 3 1/2" disks. We didn't get the internet until Windows came out, and even then, it was shitty dial-up that didn't let you do anything.

For sure. Before 10 I was online. Think parents can protect their kids by giving limited access and enforcing restrictions on screen time

[Christsdisciple15]

Totally agree

[BarryLiverstone]

Ty for agreeing

I have been online since the age of 8, but I never look at anything bad, so it never affected me negatively.

I got exposed to internet at 14, i think that's good enoght. Before that is just too much misinformation, and too much distractions, ends up in bad habits overall.

1992? No, Gopher, Usenet, and email were fun and interesting. Then someone came up with this new-fangled world wide web thing, and a program called Mozilla. It'll never take off, I tell you!

Internet wasn't really a thing for common people until the 90's so I can't claim that I was or could have been.

[Pyrofox]

I wish people were exposed earlier not later. Nothing more insulting than feeling like a grown infant on the internet.

25? I don't think so.

[slatyb]

Too late.
