I think they are. We see it differently. We left and went hunting, no big deal. No pre study. Did ok. The graduates of HS today, well most can't give you change for a $20 on a $15 purchase without a calculator. I could do that when I was 10. Kids are taught to use computers and calculators but not taught to think.
