8th graders getting Cisco training

Wow, Cisco networking geeks are getting younger and younger these days. A poster on Techimo.com named Yamanx  is

seeking some Cisco configs that he/she can use to demonstrate to a group of 8th graders “what our Cisco CCNA and CCNP classes are all about.” Yamanx writes: “I need some router configs I can put on some 2600s or some Cat 2950. I just need some idea’s anything will work! Thanks!” I know Cisco is pushing its Networking Academy to more students but this is getting out of control …

Seriously though, is your 8th grader interested in the work that you do? Would you like your kid to get into the Cisco networking industry or steer him/her into another profession?
