challenging youth to practice and self-improve

[MAPLENTY at AOL.COM]

Wow,

To see technology used in such a "good nieghbor" sort of way invites 
people you have never met to "your world."  Thanks for sharing. 

I have allowed the standard to rest, I have discovered that they (children 
do not like to--not achieve) It leaves them bored and empty.  I have the 
pleasure of working with children and their ideas just recently I allowed 
them to come in and just come and visit the internet, listen to the songs 
already created, needless to say after just one month I have seen and 
heard their boredom.  Yeah, now they can self-improve but they did not 
want it imposed on them.

Thank you for time.
