Time to stop teaching kids the ABCs

It’s hard to sell me on the benefits of teaching our kids their ABCs at this point in time. Yes, all the letters need to be taught. But the order is wrong. We live in an age of QWERTY. My kids pick up my phone and try to type in words and the keyboard is an enigma to them. Sure they know the alphabet, but not in that order.
In this day and age, it’s hard to live in the past when things are moving so quickly. The reality is that we type all day (so much so that cursive writing is becoming out of favor). If you want to prepare your kids for their future don’t teach them the alphabet in ABC order. Do them a favor and teach them their qwerty’s. It’ll serve them a lot better over time.
