Students today can’t prepare bark to calculate their problems.
They depend on their slates which are more expensive. What
will they do when the slate is dropped and it breaks? They will
be unable to write!

Students today depend on paper too much. They don’t know how
to write on a slate without getting chalk dust all over
themselves. They can’t clean a slate properly. What will they do
when they run out of paper?

Students today depend too much upon ink. They don’t know
how to use a pen knife to sharpen a pencil. Pen and ink will never replace the pencil.

Students today depend on these expensive fountain pens. They
can no longer write with a straight pen and nib. We parents must not allow them to wallow in such luxury to the detriment of learning how to cope in the real business world which is not so
extravagant.

Ballpoint pens will be the ruin of education in our country.
Students use these devices and then throw them away. The
traditional values of thrift and frugality are being discarded.
Business and banks will never allow such expensive luxuries.

You can’t use those calculators on the test. If I let you do that, you wouldn’t ever learn how to use the tables in the back of the
book and use interpolation to figure out your trig ratios.

We can’t let them use calculators in middle school. If we do, they’ll forget how to do long division or
how to multiply three digit numbers by three digit numbers.
What will they do when they don’t have access to a
calculator?

Why would you ever want the Internet for student use? It’s just
the latest fad – have them use the library.

You don’t need a web page [for our school]. Who’s ever going to
look at it?

Why do you want network points at every teacher’s desk? You’re
not thinking of getting a computer for all of them are
you?

Why are we talking about students having laptops in school? I don’t think most
parents will even give their kids their old computer, much less
buy them a new one.

I don’t think we’ll have a wireless network at our school anytime
soon.
