What are they teaching then?
If they can't learn the basics of a computer....something that has become a necessity in our society....then what or how are they teaching? Are they teaching the kids to be trained just as they are trained or are they teaching the kids to learn and think so that they can logically work their way through something new...the way they should be able to do with a computer.

Now don't get me wrong I agree whole heartedly that technology should not get in the way and it shouldn't have to be everyone's profession just to use a computer. But there are some simple and basic things that people should be able to do in this day and age.
