I learned typing in 3rd grade iirc. That seems reasonable for a fundamental skill.

My kids are in grade 3 and 6 and nobody ever taught them to type. They just handed them a Chromebook and assumed they know what they're doing.

It is a skill, but everybody seems to think it will just happen on its own.

You don't necessarily need a computer for that. They built more than a billion typewriters, IIRC.
