Good to train them early ;-)

By the time they are 12 or so you should have some really accomplished pilots.  

To register a drone with the FAA here in the US you need to be at least 13 years old. If you’re under 13 years of age, someone who is 13 years of age or older must register the drone for you.  No sure what age limits you have in your country.

Hey if I make some interest in them thats a great job-flyin a drone implies going out in nature instead of pointing in a screen indoors...

You're 100% right about that.  Kids these days spend way too much time in front of screens.  

I'm glad I grew up before the digital age caught on.

As parents we must recognize that excessive screen time can harm a child’s cognitive and emotional development.  Research confirms that increased screen use negatively impacts self-control, curiosity, task proficiency, emotional stability, and even social skills. Furthermore, sleep patterns are disrupted, which, in turn, further impacts children's development.

Some parents rely on screens as a need for a break or to manage other responsibilities. I completely understand that.  It is far easier to turn on the television or hand over an iPad than to provide constant entertainment.  However, the solution is to avoid shouldering the burden of entertaining children at all times.  Children need to learn to embrace boredom.  Research has shown that boredom fosters creativity, enhances mental health, and improves social skills.  Teaching children to be comfortable with silence and to find creative ways to interact with their surroundings is essential for their development.

In the digital age, strategic parenting is essential.  As parents we need to take back control and ensure that technology serves as a tool, not a substitute for parenting.

Sorry, I guess I took my last psychology class to serious.

To embrace boredom-thats impossible to acheive with younger generations, also to teach them patience...Those things are breaking my spine every day but Im still trying...
