View question detailsThe story does not say that technology is always harmful. Mechanical instruction may be convenient and can provide lessons at home, but it may also remove friendship, classroom discussion, and the personal understanding offered by a human teacher.

Technology should support education, not make children socially isolated or emotionally unsupported.
Margie’s reaction to the old school shows that she begins to value the experience she had never known: children learning together with a real teacher. This makes option A the balanced interpretation.
