RE: RE: Understanding the difficulties of raising a young perl coder... (ask misty?)

[misty]

jjhorner, that was *really* nice of you to offer - especially that I find myself dreaming of helpful neighbors, who would offer to cook for us for a couple of weeks ;) .

Interesting idea about the book. We were discussing with my husband the importance of early introduction to science - especially mathematics. My mother was studying in university when I was a toddler, and she used to spend a lot of time with me, explaining what she's doing :) , teaching basic arithmetics etc. It seems to me that made a huge difference in my life, particularly in my thinking ability and interest in studies.

How would one start teaching a child programming languages? I was introduced to computers late, and have no idea when and how I'll teach Adriel computing.

-- Tired but happy misty
