In the spirit of Dijkstra's quote on teaching BASIC, learning "Agile" is damaging beyond recognition. :)

Kanban boards, on the other hand, are "agile". /s

After 25 years of professional development experience my favorite task lists are still and will always be paper and pencil. ;-)

For the sake of your child, please keep him away from any and all AGILE based workflows! Such devious contraptions were not meant for the pure of soul
