You seem to think that you can only spend 24 hours a day with your child or zero.

The expectation for most people here is that you throw a toy at a child and if its not Windows they will just get smarter (magically)... maybe even teach themselves to become a rocket company CEO.

This thread just reinforces, to me, that people who claim to write software skew highly autistic. Nothing I said here is complicated, but when you are a person with exceptionally low social intelligence spending more than 5 minutes a day with your kid might really feel the same as 25 hours.

I am not kidding when I say just get your kid an iphone and pat yourself on the back. You are either trying to teach your kid something directly with your time or you are just expecting them to want to figure it out themselves because you can't be bothered.
