The Robinson Self-Teaching Curriculum is designed to develop the computer that reside between the ears of the student. This is done within the context of a loving family and a set of the best books in the English language.
Part of the secret to the success of Robinson Curriculum students is a simple rule: “No electronics in the child’s life till a year or two before graduation.” This lets them focus on learning how to think, solve problems, express themselves in writing, and interacting with some of the best minds in history through the marvelous medium of books.
Together with a carefully curated 6,464 word vocabulary system, a selection of the great classics by the best authors in the English language, a strong math component, and daily writing, the Robinson Curriculum prepares a student to leverage the ever changing world of technology as a tool in the service of the mind.
By walling off the Internet, the values of the parents become the influence that shapes the students, not those of our cultural enemies.
When the time comes when they need to use a computer they will very quickly and easily learn whatever skill is needed.
Modern technology and entertainment have done great damage to Young’s people sense of vision and purpose -especially among young men. I’m not anti-technology. But never before in the history of the world has triviality and mind-numbing shallowness been so tantalizingly seductive and so pervasively omnipresent. Never before has it been so easy to check out of real life and live in the realm of the hypertrivial.

Why let the diabolically smartest, most evil, monied, clever people in the world have access to your children through screens? “I find it quite telling that many of the executives of the large social platforms stated in the movie that they did not allow their children any time on the very platforms that they are selling to the rest of us. That is certainly food for thought.” https://www.zerohedge.com/technology/our-social-dilemma
