I know there's computer illiterate millennials. If you could turn it into a literacy ranking or percentage my argument is that more millennials (by a large margin) are computer literate than any other generation.
I think that's gen Z. For the younger half, you might have to decide whether or not a Chromebook qualifies as a PC, but idk if it even matters because Mac/Windows PCs are still necessary for work or used for games.
I could be mistaken but I think parent is referring to computer literacy as the interest in tinkering with and/or programming computers, not just using them to write school papers.
I too am quite fearful of the fact that I know zero kids under the age of 15 who have any interest in learning how computers work, despite being completely surrounded by them since age 8 or 9 (via school-issued Chromebooks).
I'm 28, and when I was 15, I didn't know anyone tinkering with computers either. Besides myself, and the other kids at school didn't take kindly to that.
Now I do know a lot of kids under 15 doing computer tinkering, usually gaming PCs. If anything, I'm worried that they do it too much.
