Default How do you tell time?

This past week, my husband and I were at farm exposition. We had paused to figure out where we were and a boy of about 10 years walked to me and asked what time it was. I said "twenty of one." The boy looked at me and said he didn't know what that was. My husband quickly said 12:50 and the boy said thanks and went on his way. My husband said to me that kids probably only know "digital time", like on cell phones and computers. Geez, it's good I didn't show him my watch - it just has dots where the numbers would on a clock face!!
