48% of parents feel that their children write more than they themselves did at the same age
48% of parents feel that their children write more than they themselves did at the same age, 31% believe that children today write less. An additional 20% feel that their children write about as much teens in the past. Parents with lower levels of education are likely to feel that their child writes more than they did at a similar age. Among parents with a high school degree or less, 57% feel that their child writes more than they did-just 41% of college-educated parents feel the same, according to Pew Internet Project.
