From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Ah, yes, totally not written by one of her parents. I hate this kind of crap. She noticed that it wasn't underlined, and they did the rest. Why is this news? No 4-yo. spells "tragedy".
"Look how special my kid is, everyone!!"
I would normally be inclined to agree but this isn't one of those "omg I just had the most intelligent conversation with my 4-yo today".
It's clearly someone sharing their hobby/job with their niece, and what better way to do that than by including them in a practical aspect. It also literally says they "helped her as she's 4 years old".
You commenting is only bringing more attention to the post by increasing the comment count so maybe reevaluate your approach in the future if you're so against wholesome content.
Agreed. Sorry. I often hear this kind of stuff IRL from my relatives, so I might be prejudiced.
People bragging about their kids is irritating. However, I hope the girl ends up being a Linux guru :-)
