Maybe that is my concern, my retirement plan! No, I just think there is an obvious benefit to having a living person, who has a heart and can express empathy, compassion, understanding, and support, teach our children. None of these qualities can be expressed via technology and all of them play a vital role in educating our children.Wendyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16939854111297066005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16660456.post-88608726499270401742009-10-02T20:06:38.372-06:002009-10-02T20:06:38.372-06:00@Wendy - I actually think that the demand for quality educators will be more and more. But, for the moment, let's assume you're correct. If people were able to learn effectively without the help of educator intermediaries, what would be the problem with that?
